Comment 0 for bug 1036205

Occasionally it happens that Unity is misbehaving in a way or another. Until Ubuntu 11.10 I would "unity --replace" and Unity would be back to normal.
After upgrading to Ubuntu Precise whenever I try using "unity --replace", it gets stuck in the middle, (Edge responsiveness...) and sometimes Unity would be functional again but if I close the terminal window or try to stop the process Unity hangs requiring a hard reboot.
I noticed I was getting some problems with BAMF not finding child processes but don't know what that means.
