This problem actually disappeared with Catalyst 13.6 and Catalyst 13.8
fixed all crashes while Catalyst 13.11 fixed OpenCL issues and improved
performance.

** Changed in: compiz
       Status: New => Fix Released

** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Fix Released

** Description changed:

- Using Radeon HD 7950 with fglrx. If I double click or attempt to drag an
- icon in the launcher/dash the GUI will stop responding (but the mouse
- will render just fine). If I move to a different tty session and back,
- it merely shows a black screen and my mouse cursor. The only way to fix
- it when this happens is to sudo restart lightdm.
- 
- Update: It's no longer a black screen when alternating between tty
- sessions, however it's unresponsive and ligthdm cannot be
- killed/restarted. It's also good to note that whenever installing a
- package with a launcher in Ubuntu Software Center, the GUI will freeze
- up under Unity. Other DE's work fine.
