Bug Description
I have been trying to use the Bling module, but if I load it, I have found that after some time it causes X to hang\freeze. The mouse still moves, but I am not able to do anything else.
I have to restart X, to resume work.
I was able to confirm bling was the cause of the hangs, by unloading it. And was also able to confirm that the problem exists weather I log in via an Enlightenment or Ecomorph session in 8.10
I was having this problem while using an ATI card, and having been frustrated with ATI drivers, I switched to an NVIDIA card with much more success. However, this did not help in allowing me to use the Bling module.

Ok, I cannot replicate it but Bling is still in development so, I guess it's
normal. We are almost ready with a new big E17 upgrade, with an updated
bling. You will tell us if the problem will be solved after the upgrade! But
remember to never load 2 composite managers at the same time. So, when
Echomorph is loaded, don't load bling too.
Greetings,
Luca D.M.
