Bug Description

After I resume from suspend in my oneiric system, I get various odd behaviors in compiz.

In all cases, I get the following symptoms:
* The mouse still works but the cursor does not display.
* They keyboard (mostly) doesn't work. I can still alt-tab, but I can't seem to type or press Super.

In addition, I've seen a couple different symptoms (I get one or the other):
1) gtk-window-decorator crashes
2) The firefox window I was looking at (maximized) is now unmaximized and displaying the orange 'resize grabs'

This is happening to me also. I use Kubuntu, KDE, and KDM, not Compiz or GDM. This did not ever, ever happen with Natty. This is a horrible bug. Whenever I wake up the laptop I have to kill X and log in again! The cursor is gone (and doesn't seem to work at all, even if I shove it into the corner as if it were just invisible). The keyboard also doesn't work right when this happens. I can use some keys but not others. It makes no sense.

FYI, I haven't gotten this in a while in precise. Might be fixed by X/compiz/unity updates?

I have noticed that when this happens, if I suspend and wake the laptop again, it usually works.
