Bug Description

0.6.0.4.precise.4
ubuntu 12.04.1 64 bit
kernel 3.7.3
catalyst 13.1
after some updates (can't remember, which one exactly),
my compiz crashes right after start if weather indicator
is set to be launched at boot.
after that, i can start compiz again via terminal and it
works fine.
if i launch weather indicator when compiz is fully loaded,
everything is fine as well.
if i reset all compiz settings to default, it works. but if
i touch a setting in ccsm, it will crash on the next boot.

i managed to bypass this bug with the following script:
#!/bin/bash
sleep 5
/usr/bin/my-weather-indicator &

but still hope you will fix this issue properly.

I don't know what is the reason for this. I will release new version 0.6.0.6 with a fix for another bug, but I think is the same problem. Please, try it, and tell me if it's fixed.

Thanks

thanks you for your work! this fix is partial:
sometimes compiz doesn't crash, and
sometimes freezes for a few seconds, then
crashes and restarts by itself, then works.

(on the previous version it crashed, restarted
and crashed again forever.)

can it be widget layer, which is used recently?
