Binary package hint: compiz

Karmic desktop completely frozen (mouse and keyboard) after enabling
Compiz Reflection plug-in in a Dell Inspiron 1525 notebook with an Intel
965 GM video controller. The problem persisted (no mouse, no keyboard)

fixed even uninstalling (apt-get purge) Compiz in a recovery mode boot.

Steps to reproduce:

1- Boot the Karmic Live CD.
2- Open System -> Administration -> Software Sources.
3- Enable the Universe repository and reload package information.
4- Install Advanced Desktop Effects Settings (cssm) in Ubuntu Software Center.
5- Open System -> Preferences -> CompizConfig Settings Manager
6- Enable the Reflection plug-in and the destop immediately freezes.
