Title:
  Unity/compiz freeze but mouse still move

Status in xserver-xorg-video-ati package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I don't know how to reproduce the but but here are the results after it happened:
  - the mouse works. first console works too (Ctrl+Alt+F1)
  - I'm able to launch unity-2d-shell and unity-2d-panel and metacity and to kill compiz to get an usable desktop
  - launching again unity won't work (desktop frozen, displaying the background without any window)
  - switching back to first console works but takes a long time (about 1 minute)
  - the system load doesn't go under 1 in top, as if there is a busy thread in X?
