[Bug 849089] Re: Compiz crashes if firefox is running for a long time

 

** Description changed:

- Compiz (0.9.4.0) crashes often on my system when im using firefox for a long time. It happens when it does flash related stuff like playing youtube video and all. It had also crashed one i was navigating through a pdf document on Document Viewer(2.32.0), but Firefox was running in the background.
- When it happens, the titlebar and borders of windows will disappear. But if the compiz process is killed though the task manager(System Monitor > Processes) compiz gets restarted and everything is fine. But if i use compiz --replace, all other windows except the terminal window in which the command is run will be restored.
