I have a fun general question that isn't about fixing anything! Compiz apparently has a bug where live window resizing hogs the CPU and makes responsive web design pretty much impossible, so I'm looking at options. I believe I can just replace the buggy unity/compiz altogether, which means I'm in the market for a new window manager. Oh the possibilities! What's slick? What's good? What will I swear by and refuse to use anything besides well after its no longer supported? Pythagoras a trois fucked around with this message at 19:23 on May 6, 2013 |

If anyone is getting random screen freezes in 14.04 using Nvidia cards with the 331 drivers, the trick is to Ctrl-Alt-F1 and then Ctrl-Alt-F7 back into your Xsession, and you won't see the issue again until you reboot. I'm also using the nvidia-prime because I have an optimus laptop. No information in the logs, no posts on the internet about it, just a broken connection to X server and a weird, ancient TTY shortcut to work around it. The previous workaround was to ctrl-alt-f1 into TTY and sudo service lightdm restart. Worked, but trashed whatever you were in the middle of. Also, when I say no information in the logs, I mean kern.log, syslog, lightdm.log, x-0.log, and Xorg.log. Seriously, you think one of those would notice that a fatal error occurred between the running beating heart of the computer and the user.
