Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-compiz-manager

I'm using 7.10 beta and I installed GL Desktop so I could configure Compiz-fusion. And on the Annotate plugin I had to press <super><alt>Button3 to erase what I've drawn. And when press it my computer freezes up. The mouse will still move but pressing stuff won't do anything. And I could still press <super><alt>k to erase all of what I've drawn (And it worked.) but It was still froze. I had to press and hold the power button to shutdown. This happens if I have the Annotate feature enabled or not so I don't think it has to do with that. But that's how I found it so it could have something to do with it.

And if I put in the code

lspci -nn

The output is

Same for me on Gutsy official, I had to switch with CTRL+ALT+F1 to kill gnome (or use CTRL+ALT+Backspace to kill X).

I changed Super+alt+button3 to CTRL+ALT+Button3 but nothing changed.

That's a weird bug, good to see it's not just my PC (Or maybe thats
bad.) I just haven't been pressing it. Hopefully they'll fix it soon.

Confirmed on Kubuntu 7.10 w/ compiz-fusion. How long do these issues take to resolve and is there an alternative? I find this useful when working with clients and remote desktop / VNC and would like a solution.

As in Justin's case, the mouse works and the "annotate" clear button works but there seems to get stuck in "clear" mode and doesn't even behave correctly as far as I can tell. Also of interest: I have 2 separate X screens running and the mouse won't leave the offending X screen during this event.

Has been fixed for a long time...

Lines always end up broken (i.e. with gaps) but that's another issue.

Changed in gnome-compiz-manager:
