Bug Description

When i close a window by clicking the X, compiz crashes. First it flickers, next we see only the desktop wallpaper and finally the desktop comes back. Other opened apps are frozen. Sometimes i see fragments of the closed window on the desktop. Most of the time the chromium browser window. If this app is open while this crash occours it's surely frozen.
This bug occours a lot. I saw it by closing krusader, thunderbird, chromium, akregator and so on.
