I have this problem, too. This week I lost critical data twice already. My desktop effects are disabled via System/Preferences/Appearance/Visual Effects However I also have this compizconfig applet installed, and some effects are indeed enabled thru *this applet* (does it matter?)
Linux 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:58:03 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV44 [GeForce 6200 TurboCache(TM)] (rev a1) This never happened wih my old display, a 17 inch monitor. Recently I added a second 24 Inch monitor. Can it be tht the video card is just overwhelmed by providing signals to two displays? I'M just doing desktop work, though. Nothing graphics intensive. I can't switch to a VT console with control+alt+f2. Screen stays blank. -- [jaunty][alpha6]X-Server restart randomly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/342324 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
