This bug is affecting me, too. Toshiba NB305 (UNE works great, btw, thanks!)
A few points. Please, keep in mind that I am a recent convert to ubuntu, although I am quite familiar with the Unix environment. Also, I have a co-worker who is very familiar with Linux/Ubuntu, and he was helping me considerably. Any technical questions can be answered, but they might require longer- than-normal time. I didn't experience this problem until I tried dragging the Appearances icon (I know, I shouldn't have done this, but I realized that afterwards) to the Launcher. Unity immediately started exhibiting the problems described by the OP. We discovered that if you start the window manager from the command-line everything works correctly. However, when you start it from gdm it returns to the bad behavior. This is the command we used to restart: mutter --display=:0.0 --replace& Also, with it restarted and working, if you try to drag a new application onto the launcher it breaks again in the same fashion. Replacing the window manager again fixes it again, but the new icon is not available. Right now, it works. Don't dare restart...I'm happy to help in any way, just please have patience! -- Ubuntu Unity keeps reloading on my system ... https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/578585 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
