[Bug 1176327] Re: Compiz crashes on a daily basis, will not restart

 

Changing package to libgl1-mesa-dri due to the xorg-edgers driver
upgrade mentioned before eliminating the issue. I am not positive if I
should chalk it up to xserver-xorg-video-radeon instead but I get the
feeling it's an OpenGL side issue since Compiz does render through that.

Compiz has now run with the edgers driver without crashes for a week or
so for me (a duration unthinkable with the original raring driver),
though the edgers driver does have the occasional freeze (which it
recovers from), especially when a large window is being created.

I am still open to trying more conservative upgrades to the original
raring packages. I can also downgrade from the edgers repository and run
specific tests on the original raring driver on request. (Still not sure
why compiz had problems restarting after a crash though.)

** Package changed: compiz (Ubuntu) => mesa (Ubuntu)
