Bug Description
compiz crashes the laptop (reboot occurs automatically) when using dual monitor.
if I have the Visuals Effects set to None, the system works fine, including dual monitor in Twin view. A few minutes after setting the Visual Effects to Normal the laptop crashes.
I am not sure compiz is the culprit, actually probably it is not since I believe compiz is not active when Visual Effects are set to Normal.
In any case, compiz works nicely when I don't have the second monitor connected. The laptop crashes if I set the Visual Effects to Extra.
The second monitor is connected using the HDMI output.
nvidia is 8400M
