Description of problem: While compiz is enabled the screen cannot be rotated. It rotates the screen, but then the desktop does not adapt, meaning that it still has the old resolution cutting of parts on the right and not extending over the full height. The desktop does not react to input any longer (mouse, keyboard). However, pressing the "Print" button (tried to take a snapshot but failed) makes the mouse cursor switch to busy for a short moment. Switching to a VT and back blanks the screen to black, mouse cursor is visible. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-drv-i810-2.1.1-7.fc8 compiz-0.6.2-3.fc8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable desktop effects 2. rotate screen using the screen resolution preferences 3. See rotate fail Alternative: 1. Rotate screen (while desktop effects are disabled) 2. Enable rotate screen 3. Screen freezes instantly. Actual results: Desktop freezes and has to be killed with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. Expected results: Screen should have been rotated with desktop effects enabled.

Added the requested log and config files. The problem remains with the latest updates from today installed (not updates-testing though, let me know if anything relevant is there).
I have updates-testing here and I can fully reproduce it here. Also, when crashing (I have even User Switching enabled and running out of the second users desktop), it made such a mess with the system daemons, that I was not able to make it work again (neither HAL, d-bus, NM, or any other important daemon run and they couldn't be restarted).
