Ok, false alarm, for some reason my nvidia kernel module wasn't being built... I fixed it with 'dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-current' (found this out by running 'compiz --replace ccp' and seeing messages GLX extension missing).
Sorry for the noise, but at least I can verify that I did consistently get a compiz crash that was resolved only after upgrading to version 0.9.7.8+bzr3121-0ubuntu1~test6 from ppa:unity-team/sru So the fix is good, thanks to all who made it happen and hope to see it soon in the regular repository for 12.04 LTS. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/944653 Title: compiz crashed on startup with SIGSEGV in strstr() from GLScreen::GLScreen() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/944653/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
