Bug Description
If another client already has a touch grab on the root window, libgeis crashes, taking unity down in the process.
To reproduce, compile the attached program, and then add it to the startup applications. The command should be '/path/to/touchgrab 2 0 reject'. Then log out and log back into unity, which results in the crash. Tested on quantal.
This might be the underlying cause of bug #1038455.

Hi, this could be the same as bug #1080386: https:/
I've installed touchegg on my Ubuntu 12.10, and added it to the startup applications, when compiz/unity crashes...
