Comment 50 for bug 1293384

Weelll Said Peter Goudman.

Compiz Alone is destroying all the goodwill earned so far by Ubuntu. I am always ready to hit that reset button to get out of that black screen lockup happening quite often, specially when you have a lots of windows open. If you have any Docks(even plan is pretty bad these days). it is bound to happen more frequent. SO frustrating, that every now and then, I have to close Plank, then do a compiz --replace when the mouse starts getting sluggish. It is when the mouse starts getting Sluggish, that the BOD(Black Screen of Deatch) is coming soon to happen.

Every release of Ubuntu, comes with GUI glitches that are so disgusting in a day today work.

I think after version 11.04, almost everything is messed up with Ubuntu. It looks as if Compiz development is more geared towards keeping Unity Happy and careless about any other DE.

While XFCE is really great, Try Ubuntu Mate : I found it quite fast, sleek and awesome from the first look, and with at least 30+ including 25 odd Chrome(memory management sucks) windows, it was still rock stable, at least in my case.
