Bug Description
Binary package hint: compiz
When booting into Ubuntu Classic after upgrade to Natty, the computer freezes after a random time interval. I can see the mousepointer changing on context, but I can not interract with the graphical interface in any way. I've tried reinstalling ati-fglrx drivers and updating to newest version, but this has so far had no effect.
I have so far not experienced this bug running Unity, but I have not been running Unity for long periods of time.

what happens if you log into Ubuntu Classic (no effects)? If it works then go to CompizConfig Settings manager and turn off open gl and all of the things dependent on it, log out, and log back in into Ubuntu Classic. If this works then you have the same problem as me. It should work like this, but then you don't get any fancy effects.
