Hi Ruben,

I would like to capture a stack trace of the compiz process while it it frozen. Sounds tricky, but here's an idea:

1. Download the attached dstack script to your home directory.
2. Open a terminal and...
3. chmod 700 dstack
4. sudo -s
5. sleep 5 && ./dstack compiz >> compizhang.txt
6. NOW QUICKLY trigger the freeze, to ensure it's frozen before step 5 completes.
7. chmod 644 compizhang.txt
8. Attach compizhang.txt to this bug.

If you're not sure you've caught it during the freeze, then please repeat step 5-6 several times.
