Same thing happens if I try to open power or sound settings from indicators or when I try to add online accounts in evolution. I can reproduce same with totem. But all other applications are working fine. And everything works in Yakkety. Screencast:https://youtu.be/69PJZf055V8 I am happy to provide any other debugging info. Just don ask to use ¨apport collect¨ as it hangs as well! I can provide details manually through syslog or something. System: Custom made (Intel Core2duo, 4GB RAM, Intel Mobile GME965/GLE960 Integrated Graphics) Graphics driver: i915 Os: Ubuntu 17.04, 32bit UCC: 15.04.0+17.04.20161125.1-0ubuntu1 Edit: If I boot to recovery and use gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe, problem disappears as well. That is why I think itś some sort of graphics issue.
