desktop freez/Hang/Totally Jammed

[Mohd Imran Jamadar]

Binary package hint: compiz

I am unsure but my desktop keeps freezing totally and i have to reboot totally to log in again.

this started happening after upgrading to beta 2 over many updates.

i have noticed this hang particularly when a update was released for compiz or unity.

This bug isn't a dupe of #728101, I've got it too on my desktop.
