Bug Description

I clicked on applications to search for an app, the desktop froze up and a few seconds later, the message that compiz had crashed poped up. Running the latest version of alpha3 on an asus 1215n. I upgraded from 10.10 via 'sudo sudo do-release-upgrade -d' earlier today.

I think I've fixed this with today's upload of unity (3.6.2), but I'm milestoning for this week just in case. Please try latest Unity and update here if this is still an issue, thanks!
