The easiest/fastest way I found to get the system back workable with Kubuntu is: - Try to log in - ctrl-alt-f1 to a console when the login hangs - kill -9 kwin or compiz.real (depending on which you use) - Alt-F7 back to the GUI - Use the cashew to add the Konsole Profiles plasmoid to the desktop. - Use the plasmoid to start a shell and then run systemsettings - In SystemSettings, disable desktop effects.
I tried only unchecking "Enable direct rendering", as dlanor78 mentioned above, but that did not work for me on Kubuntu 9.04a4 w/nvidia 180.27 (9800GTX+). -- compiz/kwin freezes on login as of xorg-server 1.5.99.902-0ubuntu2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/326344 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
