Comment 17 for bug 122941

I had this bug today after installing the Nvidia 100.14.11 driver. I rebooted and the resolution of gdm and my desktop was set to 1024x768, while it should be 1280x1024. I then noticed that some new effects were in place and I then looked at the desktop effects tab of the appearance window. Desktop effects were enabled and when clicking to disable my computer crashed. Got totally no response, ctrl+alt+backspace did not work anymore. After a hard reset I logged in again and apport indicated a problem, the same as described above. I have all updates since 07-23-2007 installed, so the bug is still present.
