[Bug 1408038] [NEW] Unity/compiz freeze but mouse still moves

 

Public bug reported:

random lockups where the mouse still works. fiddling with tty1 has mixed
results -- killall on compiz to avoid a hard reboot would work for a
bit, but after a couple of hits of that, things just went weird in the
way of it just giving me the stock orange background image, or
performing very slowly. I switched from firefox usage to chrome and that
seemed to help. the last day I was using firefox, this lockup happened 3
times in one morning. normally after my screen sleeps from inactivity.
but sometimes while I'm actively using the laptop. after 5 days of no
issues in using chrome, it happened again. I've downloaded the compiz
config app and disabled animations. hoping that will avoid the problem.

perhaps similar to bug 339982
