I removed the nvidia 304.131 driver from my installed system. After rebooting I'm prompted for a new bug directly at log in. It seems to affect xorg-server, but the free desktop graphics driver (nouveau) seems to work with my nvidia Geforce GT 430 card.
I tried mkusb twice (making persistent live drives) and the zenity windows worked without any glitch. It is too early to be sure, but it indicates that there are problems with the nvidia graphics. I hope it will be fixed before 16.04 LTS will be released. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to zenity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1562607 Title: problems to use zenity (in my application mkusb) - after update/dist- upgrade Status in zenity package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Bug #1562591 continues here: After today's update/dist-upgrade zenity windows are flaky. Sometimes they are empty, and the next attempt they work again. Finally I rebooted, and then I was prompted to write this bug report. I made a second update/dist-upgrade before trying to run mkusb again - but the bug is still alive.
