Public bug reported: Binary package hint: compiz
For about the last week, I have often come back to my machine after leaving it for some time (screensaver has kicked in -- even perhaps the powersaving on the monitor has kicked in) and I find that my GNOME desktop has fallen back on the non-accellerated window manager. Running compiz --replace restarts the window manager and I can carry on as per usual. I've never actually witnessed the crash -- I'm just assuming the crash since I leave the machine with compiz running and come back to no compiz. This problem only started to manifest in the last week or so -- about the amount of time since the last kernel update. I'm running NVIDIA 195 drivers (I have a GTX260 which doesn't seem to like the default 185 drivers: machine locks up a lot with that config, especially if I run a GL-enabled app (ie, game) in Compiz). The 190 drivers were working well for me, but I tried updating to the 195 drivers to see if that was the issue -- the compiz crashes continue however. I would appreciate any ideas on where to gather more information to make this report more useful.
