Unfortunately, the workaround mentioned above seems not actually to have helped. When I first tried it, I was able to use desktop effects for about an hour with no problems. I then rebooted, however, and X froze again within a minute of the desktop appearing. I haven't been able to reproduce the stable behavior.
I also noticed that X.org.log says "(WW) intel(0): Option "AccelMethod" is not used," so apparently this option is no longer valid, which explains why it didn't actually help as a workaround. Is there any other way to disable UXA acceleration in Karmic, or other thoughts on how we might work around this issue?
