[Bug 742527] [NEW] Compiz crashes on any load

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

Compiz is crashing on my machine (after an upgrade to natty) with any
load of it (this is including any launch from a session)

It does not automatically fall back, but leaves me with an unresponsive
black screen.

Switching to a console and back to X gives me a black screen with a
cursor, and I can use the keyboard to replace with metacity.
