** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: compiz
  
  I upgraded to ubuntu natty beta yesterday ( 27th April). (The upgrade
  aborted near the end becaus of VirtualBox package, so I restarted the
  computer by myself.)  on login to unity or gnome I noticed the screen
  freezes so I guessed it may be compiz. I replaced compiz with metacity
  and gnome works as usually. unity needed compiz, so unity didn't work -
  no panels, just icons. the freeze occurs every time I start compiz. if I
  start compiz with --indirect-rendering, compiz works fine and still 3d
  accelerated which I can't understand. I use the nvidia current version
- driver for my graphic card.
+ driver for my graphic card. If I disable the opengl and composite
+ plugins via ccsm, compiz runs OK, without 3D effects of course.
