Hi,

[this comment has been falsely reported in bug #205536 too, i screwed up myself when finding the right one, sorry… perhaps these bugs could be duplicates ?]

confirmed on latest Intrepid, AMD64 and Intel GMA X4500MHD (full HW info @ http://deep-ocean.net/files/sony/ ). This crash happens at EVERY login.
  * I run XFCE
  * with xfwm4 package uninstalled
  * and a symlink from /usr/bin/compiz to /usr/bin/xfwm
At login, session starts normally, then compiz crashes. If I open a terminal and type "compiz --replace", compiz is stable until next reboot : If I just logout then login, compiz works flawlessly.
It could be because I've got an xrandr call in my session scripts, because of bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xbacklight/+bug/176888

→ when my session is GNOME, compiz works flawlessly and never crashes. It's been crashing at login 100% of the time only since I use Xfce, but I can't seem to find the reason of the crash.
