Comment 76 for bug 1057000

I'm aware that I'm probably missing something and/or posting in the wrong place.

I am trying to find an active bug addressing the non reveal on autohide issue with 12.04.1 LTS. I don't have the nvidia driver package installed but am still suffering from the same bug.

There are a number of confirmed and incomplete bugs related to this - Bug #971018, #923749, this one #1057000 and many more. It is therefore impossible to unpick what problems are actually being addressed.

The bugs seem to suggest that the problem has been narrowed down to

1 incorrect settings,
2 lack of user skill, or
3 nvidia driver problems.

However there seems is a separate problem for people who

1 cannot make the toolbar appear even with CompizConfig adjustments,
2 have fully followed the instructions on how to push to get the launcher to appear, and
3 don't use nvidia drivers, or have tried the nvidia fix and it did not work.

I have already posted (probably incorrectly) on https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/971018.

Any advice on what bug to post on (to avoid further forum pollution from yet another new bug report) would be welcome.
