Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[David Barth (dbarth)]

I've seen this one and Sam should have a fix released in the Tuesday upload

[pablomme (pablomme)]

Just in case this adds anything useful: I've seen this bug on both my desktop and laptop, both while about to launch a dist-upgrade from update-manager, exactly when the gksu prompt was supposed to display. In this incarnation, the bug makes compiz crash, attempting to restart it by switching to a VT and launching "DISPLAY=:0 unity --replace" briefly displays a full desktop which cannot be interacted with, and eventually crash again. The second time I got this, I went to a VT and did "killall gksu", and only then compiz was able to restart successfully.

So I guess this has to do with gksu's screen grab clashing with the recent stacking-order compiz fixes (never got this crash before Thursday). I should add that not every invocation of gksu causes this; a gksu dialogue correctly popped up while going through the apport bug reporting process.

Same as #7. Doesn't seem to affect updating via Synaptic though.

Thx Christopher,
I enjoy trying the beta & submitting the stuff I find. I'm not much of a
linux guru, but learning fast. Just hope my stuff helps even a little bit.
Cheers
John

Hi, i don't know if this is the correct bug, but in my machine, most of the time, ubuntu 11.10 beta 2 freezes with no error or log message, just freezes all the screen, no mouse movement possible, not ctrl+alt+ (f1,f2,f3,f4) possible either, just reset button and try again.

My spects
Asus p5qc (Intel P45)
Intel Core2Quad (2666 MHz)
2GB ram (DDR1333)

I think that my mother is not quite compatible. But until Ubuntu 10.04 worked like a charm!

This error occurred when closing Empathy. My system: Ubuntu 11.10
