I was using compiz with no problems and almost "out of the box" after
installing livna's kmod-nvidia of course.

Just got that working myself, a couple of days ago.

Some time after installation I began loosing the window title and
controls (_, [] and X) and then, it just started freezing my computer
just like that.

This always happened while turning "Desktop Effects" on and off.

I saw that too. I lost those gadgets, and had to hold down ALT while I
clicked in the middle of windows to move them asside. I had a
confirmation dialogue box waiting for me behind another window. The
computer hadn't frozen, but I had things in the way that weren't
responding to input. The top-of-screen menubar still worked.

Well, it really froze with me. Even the keyboard froze; caps lock and
num lock didn't respond. It has happened to me too... but this is
different.


I've not uninstalled/re-installed things to sort it out. Just what I
said above, and I did a CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE to restart X, the first few
times.

Ctrl+Alt+Backspace didn't work... I left it there for 20 mins too...
