If I lock the system while it is frozen (by closing the laptop's lid), the lock screen will be usable, but once I log back in, the system will still be frozen (until I kill the foreground process). However, the cursor will be a normal cursor instead of the "dragging" cursor.
Also, something I discovered: if I use two-fingers at once (multitouch), I can interact with the focused window. However, it is very limited and glitchy. As with before, the only way to return the system to a usable state is to kill the foreground process. All other events (including Alt-F2) except for TTY switching (Ctrl-Alt-F3) are still completely ignored by GNOME, rendering the system frozen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2037307 Title: Dragging the top activities/time bar freezes GNOME completely (Xorg session) Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: If you use a touchscreen and drag a finger down on the very top bar (with the time and the former activities button), GNOME will completely freeze. The mouse cursor will be locked in the "drag" state. All keyboard input (including Alt-F2) will be ignored. The only way to escape this state is to switch into a virtual console and kill the current program.
