Comment 0 for bug 741908

After updating my natty install today, the desktop is completely unusable with compiz crashing all over the place when changing focus and notify-osd events.

Steps to reproduce:
1. login
2. ctrl-t to open a gnome-terminal
3. move the terminal to the center of the desktop
4. click the desktop
5. click inside the terminal
6. repeat alternating 4 and 5 until compiz crashes.

I tried moving aside ~/.compiz and ~/.compiz-1 before logging in with no effect. This happens with many windows, not just gnome-terminal.
