Bug Description

Binary package hint: compiz

Please see also bug#711715, i think this is the crash related to the problem I reported there (empty desktop on startup).

This happens MOST of the time trying to login with natty default desktop (compiz+unity), but sometimes I've been able to login. No clue on the possible causes, I always tried logging in just after boot.
