Public bug reported: Binary package hint: compiz
gnome-appearence-properties blocks and no interactions is possible. If it started from the console it gives the following errors (I think they are related): X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 158 Major opcode: 146 Minor opcode: 3 Resource id: 0x0 Failed to open device I thought it's related to compiz libraries (although they are not "enabled"), so I purged compiz package and the the desktop becomes unusable because the windows manager dies when the session is started. The laptop is a IBM Thinkpad x31, with a Ati Mobilty (M6) graphic board. 3D acceleration is enabled by default. ** Affects: compiz (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gutsy: compiz makes some applications block or die https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152011 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
