Have you updated this machine since installing F9a? Similar bugs to this were fixed recently (in the past 
couple of weeks).

Could you make sure your system is updated, retest, and include the version number of the following 
packages:
compiz, kernel, xorg-x11-drv-i810, xorg-x11-server-Xorg

Thanks!

Comment 2 Paul Walmsley 2008-03-21 16:53:48 UTC
Thanks, I will try this with Fedora 9 beta.

Comment 3 Matěj Cepl 2008-03-21 22:13:00 UTC
Let us know then.

Comment 4 Jesse Keating 2008-04-06 13:50:02 UTC
We recently fixed some glx crashes.  Please be sure that this doesn't happen
with xorg-x11-server-1.4.99.901-17.20080401.fc9 or later.

Comment 5 Jon Stanley 2008-04-18 11:50:51 UTC
I can't reproduce this any more - closing
