Hi, I'm posting here first since I'm not sure against what to file this bug. Maybe someone has the same issue... Since this week-end at least (I hadn't rebooted my laptop in a few days), after booting my laptop and logging in through gdm, I see the GNOME slash screen, then I see lots of disk I/O going on for a few seconds, but then once the splash screen went away but before anything else appears on the screen (no wallpaper, no panel, only the solid blue background)... complete freeze. Impossible to switch back to a console or even ping the system. The weird thing is that if I first open a failsafe session, disable desktop effects with the "desktop-effects" tool, log out, log back into GNOME and re-enable desktop effects once logged in, everything works fine, wobbly and all. Anyone else seeing this? Does this seem more of an X issue, a GNOME issue or a compiz issue? :-/ My laptop has an ATI Mobility 9600 (r300) and I'm using the default free radeon driver.
