Comment 10 for bug 690461

Well - The effect here, (where unity/compiz was stable and no symptoms like the bug reporter), was immediate.

Have now regressed to where consecutive logins to the Desktop Edition result in unity crashing during login, ie. no launcher, no menu bar, spinning cursor. ( the exact behavior as seen right before /000_workaround_gconfbackend_init_hang.patch was applied.

One of two temp workarounds I had used then is again working, the other somewhat
The somewhat one was to alternate logins from Desktop to Classic , ect.
The working 'workaround' is a small startup script -
#!/bin/bash
sleep 2
compiz

Reverting back to 0ubuntu3 also results in a stable unity/compiz with no issues with consecutive logins ( and again no sign of this bugs issues

I also know that prior to the 000 patch many people were having issues with the Desktop login.
