[ubuntu] Compiz Breaks Desktop 20 weeks 19 hours ago

Hello, So every time I try to change the compiz profile, it crashes and breaks my desktop. I then have to either unity --reset, or compiz --replace for it to work again.

I have ubuntu 12.04 with kernal 35, and compiz 0.9.7.9 Video Card is a ATI Radeon HD5000 series, using the ATI Radeon driver for ubuntu.

Does anyone know how to fix the bugs in compiz? Or have a different solution?

ATI Radeon 9250 Driver Problem 1 year 18 weeks ago

I going to be fast to explain what happen, because my English is not very well.

I have a ATI Radeon 9250 video card (250mb) and is a PCI slot.

I updated my drivers using the additional drivers tab

my video is an AMD Radeon HD 7640G

after changing the driver now when when ever i restart / reboot

all i get is the command line prompt

how do i revert back to the original drivers supplied by ubuntu

the proprietary drivers don't seem to work

ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5400

I was using the default open source driver with Gnome classic, but when I upgraded to the closed sourced one using jockey-gtk/additional drivers everything messed up! It failed to activate the driver. Here is the error log.

Wobbly windows or any other compiz effect won't work now. I can't even move a window!

I wanted to replace the old driver that comes from the "Additional Drivers" window with the newest ATI Catalyst driver. I tried installing Catalyst, but it said I had to remove the old driver, so i did. I tried again, but it still said the old driver was still installed, so i figured a reboot might solve the problem. Now I can't boot back up. I can't even get to the purple screen.

I upgraded a Dell C610 from Ubuntu Lucid to Xubuntu Precise. Compiz worked just fine under Lucid, but I can't seem to get it to work under Precise.
