Initially this laptop Toshiba Tecra M9 had problem with beta 1 of Precise Pengolin and I have raised ticket with regards to it.

Then Beta 2 installed and worked fine thill this update today. Instead of Unity screen I have been greated with crash messages.

I have just realised that compiz problem after last update was caused by updater crash - it has happened when I has watching youtube while updating system.
I have booted to the recovery mode and run "dpkg --reconfigure -a" and system is now fine.

All working fine without need for the Nvidia proprietary drivers so I think we can close this ticket.
