Comment 1 for bug 1022716

Whenever emacs doesn't respond, I use my mouse to click "File", then click "File" again, and then I get back my emacs. It is very annoying, enough to stop me using emacs altogether.

Same thing happens to me too, and I think it's been like this since more than a year ago. It's 2013 January, and I still experience this often times in my VMWare virtual machine with Ubuntu 10.04 x64.
