[Bug 516909] Re: entire desktop environment locks up in 9.10, i3-530 proc, built-in graphics
I can confirm this bug. The same things happened today on a brand new
computer with an ASUS P7H55-M PRO motherboard fitted with an Intel
i3-530 CPU, both in the Live CD environment and after a successful
installation (had to use the alternate installer).
After a bit of googling I found an acceptable workaround though. By
chaning the last line in /etc/xdg/compiz/compiz-manager to
COMPIZ_NAME="metacity" (effectively turning desktop effects off)
everything seems to work just fine. I can't tell for sure if this
workaround will work in the long run as I just installed the system but
it's been working flawlessly for about an hour now compared to the 5-10
seconds it did before.
Could someone enlighten me/us as to whether this is a bug in the driver,
in Compiz or in the kernel? For the record I'm running a stock Karmic
kernel (2.6.31-19-generic).
