Gaz, your issue is actually a separate bug and is (most likely) a crash
in your driver. Compiz can't cause your entire session to crash, only
the X server itself and the drivers loaded in to it can do that.

For the original issue, compiz 0.9 (currently in natty) has the ability
to handle these large windows even when your video card/driver cannot
but we currently do not have it enabled by default.
