...and in a spectacular demonstration of why I should update my system before reporting stuff like this, about an hour and a half ago, my update manager popped up with a lot of new stuff from xorg-edgers, and out of curiosity, I rebooted my computer to see if it had helped with the situation. Unfortunately, rather than helping it appears to have made things worse - I'm now back in the same position I was before. Doing almost anything in unity or classic desktop with compiz enabled causes graphic degradation, crashes and freezes requiring a hard reboot. So I'm back to the 2d desktop.
I'm completely back to where I was before and not sure what to do about it. Well...it was a nice four days that I had compiz back and running? *sigh* -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/980017 Title: [i965gm] GPU lockup render.IPEHR: 0x02000004 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/980017/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
