Ubuntu 12.04 as of April 16, 2012: I use CCSM to set a trogger for Expo reveal to top right edge. More often than not it seems compiz crashes on login, leaving a nautilus-only desktop. Restarting lightdm from a VT then logging in again usually fixes it, but at that point Compiz loses my Expo hot corner. It still remains set in CCSM, but I have to unset then re-set it for it to work.

This used to happen a lot in Ubuntu 11.10 as well.
