I have the same problem with my "nVidia Corporation GeForce 8600 GT (rev a1)". That's really curious. Maybe it's only a problem of new nVidia graphic cards, because on my laptop with an nVidia GeForce 5, compiz is not crashing when I open the kopete message window. And the GeForce 5 also needs the driver nvidia-glx-new.
And this is not only a problem of compiz. The same problem appears if you are using visual effects with kompmgr or something like that. A bug report to this issue has been filed on http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100020 . This report also links to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2594 . So it looks like a problem of Xorg. -- Kopete crashes X specially if compiz is running https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193333 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
