The component field of this report says Radeon. It's unlikely for fglrx and radeon to be affected by one and the same bug. It's possible that fglrx has a similar bug though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/108527 Title: X freezes when compiz is enabled on ATI X300 Status in The Great Mass of Obsolete Junk: Invalid Status in xf86-video-ati: Confirmed Status in “xserver-xorg-video-ati” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “xserver-xorg-video-ati” source package in Hardy: Invalid Status in “xserver-xorg-video-ati” package in Fedora: Invalid Bug description: i just installed the new ubuntu 7.4 on my laptop toshiba m40x with ati x300. i've enabled desktop effects with no window wobbling and with cube rotation. it works quite well but sometime, without any clear reason, the desktop freezes completely (happened simply moving the mouse on an icon or opening a new application): the mouse moves but can't interact with the desktop no chance to ctrl-alt-bksp, or to change console (ctrl-alt-f1), keyboard is not responding i have to shout down the computer from the power button. (restarting everything works again but occasionally some new bugs appear) Don't know how to give more informations. there are a number of other minor but annoying bugs correlated, i don't know if they have to be posted here or in the compiz bugsite. they happen quite frequently and are: after maximizing a window it is not possible to unmaximize from the title bar icon (only from the bottom panel) the number of workspaces resets to 1 and the cube is not able to rotate some windows are not refreshed and the content is not visible (as bug 91810) some windows are visible in every workspace and more.. [Note] There are numerous unrelated -ati errors that can cause freezes in X that are particular to specific hardware or usage scenarios. The original bug reporter's specific issue was resolved, so if you are also experiencing an X freeze it is probably unrelated to this bug. PLEASE REPORT YOUR ISSUE AS A SEPARATE BUG.
