[Launchpad Bug Tracker <963264@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Seems that compiz is hanging on startup and doesn't draw anything for quite some users. The fix was:
- if libcomposite can't intialize, exit 1 and gnome-session restarts compiz
- add --replace systematically to compiz to replace current compositing manager
- we have a migration checker reverting the compiz default plugin list once for beta2

Seems compiz is locking up itself. See JasonW and Mikkel for machine
which can reproduce that easily.
