compiz.real crashed with SIGSEGV in blurDrawWindow()

Binary package hint: compiz

Sorry, this is almost certainly a dupe, but I can't tell the reports apart, so I'll leave that for one of you wonderful triagers. Anyway, the contents of this report were autogenerated by the crash reporter.

Actually, the crash keeps happening over and over again.

With Jaunty Beta, I enabled transparency for dropdownmenu as well as a blur under the menu. Now every time Banshee changes tracks (and the new notification pops up) compiz crashes.
