Comment 20 for bug 954565

This is the most frustrating thing! Enough to cause one to tear one's hair out.

It has nothing to do with Gimp. For me, it happens with system monitor, arora, chrome, almost anything, and every day. Worst is that the windows sometimes get moved to workspaces that are not even visible. Nothing then appears in the Unity bar. If I then open the doc in Nautilus again, it reappears as if by magic.

Other times, something happens and whilst the panel is still visible it becomes non-responsive. I then discovered if you press the hard shutdown button it brings up the shutdown dialog and restore the workspaces again.

The worst is that all this stuff worked perfectly in ubuntu 11.04. I did not upgrade to 11.10 because I could simply not get it to work at all on my Dell XPS.

The other frustrating thing is that it sometimes bleeds it in such a way that just the top border is not visible - so you cannot drag the window. Only option sometimes is to open up system monitor, kill the process and restart it again

Do you know how frustrating this is if you are due for a meeting and have some last minute printing to do, or something like that?
