** Description changed: After upgrading from 12.04 to 12.10, I found that once logged in, I can move the mouse around and items highlight as I mouseover them, as well as the launcher seeming to respond appropriately too. Upon first click, however (whether it be on the launcher, taskbar, or even a right-click on the desktop) compiz or unity (inextricably linked now?) hangs. The mouse pointer can be moved about freely, but otherwise no further action is possible. It occured to me that perhaps the issue was related to some sort of configuration issue - maybe leftover bits from 12.04 confusing 12.10. I tried the guest login, and everything worked flawlessly, possibly confirming my suspicion. My next step was to delete .compiz/session from my home directory. Upon reboot, everything worked fine again. Problem solved? Apparently not - upon next boot, it hangs again as before. I also find that .compiz/session has been re-created. Deleting it via a terminal session then allowed me to reboot to a working desktop, but only once unless I first delete the contents of .compiz/session Workaround: As a workaround, I've added a line to /etc/rc.local to delete the contents of .compiz/session at boot time: - rm /home/my_username/.compiz/session/* + rm /home/my_username/.compiz/session/* For a more verbose description including troubleshooting steps taken, see: - https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/211844 + https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+question/211844 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: compiz 1:0.9.8.4-0ubuntu3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-17.28-generic 3.5.5 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-17-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia .proc.driver.nvidia.gpus.0: Error: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/0' .proc.driver.nvidia.registry: Binary: "" .proc.driver.nvidia.version: - NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 304.43 Sun Aug 19 20:14:03 PDT 2012 - GCC version: gcc version 4.7.2 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.2-2ubuntu1) + NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 304.43 Sun Aug 19 20:14:03 PDT 2012 + GCC version: gcc version 4.7.2 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.2-2ubuntu1) .tmp.unity.support.test.0: - + ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: [core,bailer,detection,composite,opengl,compiztoolbox,decor,resize,regex,animation,mousepoll,imgpng,place,workarounds,move,snap,session,gnomecompat,vpswitch,grid,wall,unitymtgrabhandles,expo,fade,ezoom,scale,unityshell] CompositorRunning: compiz Date: Sat Oct 20 19:04:07 2012 DistUpgraded: 2012-10-19 19:43:12,592 DEBUG enabling apt cron job DistroCodename: quantal DistroVariant: ubuntu DkmsStatus: nvidia-current, 304.43, 3.5.0-17-generic, x86_64: installed GraphicsCard: - NVIDIA Corporation G98 [GeForce 9300M GS] [10de:06e9] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) - Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
