Bug Description
in order to get compiz to work and all aspects of the screen to display it can require up to 6 restarts of the x server on my laptop. This laptop previously ran feisty with compiz-fusion without a problem. Gutsy however results in a system that is unusable. Now all plugins will function on any one restart and that aspect is hit or miss. The following plugins have been found to not start.
1. Cube (beyond 2 faces)
2. Cube caps
3. Resize
4. Move Window
5. Put.
Additionally it will crash multiple times or frequently it works but extremely slow. Top shows now excessive CPU usage but screen updates are jerky and hard to work with. Below is the output of lspci
