Maarten, This actually makes lots of sense. I had it happen again last night, and after checking logs, it was indeed Xorg losing control of direct rendering. I can move the mouse around the black screen, and watch the cursor change as it goes over links, and various other things, and I can still

OK, so this bug is now a security issue, seeing as I just typed my system password in an IRC chat window. When this bug just happened to me, I dropped to TTY1, logged in, did sudo service lightdm restart, typed password again, and when I got back into my session, it turns out since I had quassel f

Christopher, before I attach all of that, I want to note, that I enabled prerelease updates on my system, and it pulled in a new version of kernel, lightdm, and xorg. I have not had the issue happen since then, so I am going to assume that this bug was fixed upstream. If it happens again, I will u

This is still a pretty giant problem for me. If you select a new message entry in the indicator applet, the launcher entry just wiggles, demanding attention instead of foregrounding the window. Pidgin isn't the only app to do this, Thunderbird does as well. It all used to work in 12.04 as well,

Hmm.. I can't reproduce the error now. I killed ~/.pulse because I'm sure running it via sudo killed some stuff in there, and now I only get small hiccups when listening to FLAC over wifi, or watching some hi def movies over wifi, and sometimes it chokes so bad that the audio cuts out, and never c

Wait a minute, I may have done that... but you would think a reboot would cure that? It was suggested to do a "sudo service pulseaudio restart" in the IRC channel #ubuntu+1, so the error makes sense there. If that broke something, how is it cured? And there was an issue before that obviously
