Yes, I had the same behavior with "killall metacity" (which I was using because I was recompiling it with various things commented out). I'll run some compiz tests and make sure I can reproduce your results. I think there -is- some negotiation going on, and I'm not sure what happens if a process asks X to hand it events and then dies or is killed; do the events get black-holed? I'll pull down the sources to those compiz processes if I can find it and take a look as well, though it'll be a superficial look. More in a bit. (Might also be interesting, after switching to compiz and back, to kill the left-behind compiz processes and see if that changes anything.)
Together we'll kill this thing. [Possibly even with fire. That comment of yours early on had me in stitches.] -- System beep broken in Karmic despite heroic efforts to fix it https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/486154 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
