compiz crashes the laptop (reboot occurs automatically) when using dual
monitor.

 if I have the Visuals Effects set to None, the system works fine,
including dual monitor in Twin view.  A few minutes after setting the
Visual Effects to Normal the laptop crashes.

I am not sure compiz is the culprit, actually probably it is not since I
believe compiz is not active when Visual Effects are set to Normal.

In any case, compiz works nicely when I don't have the second monitor
connected.  The laptop crashes if I set the Visual Effects to Extra.

The second monitor is connected using the HDMI output.

nvidia is 8400M
Nvidia Driver 188.44
hp pavillion dv6000
Ubuntu 9.04
