might also be worth mentioning no application icons appear in the application launcher window when this happens.
** Description changed: Binary package hint: unity I have an intermittent bug in natty unity: 1- click the (+) applications button - 2- sometimes, the search window appears, but greyed out, and with all launcher buttons greyed out too. typing causes icons to be selected on the desktop rather than characters to appear in the search field. clicking on the search field doesn't help. clicking outside has no effect either. clicking on a launcher button dismisses the window. + 2- sometimes, the search window appears, but greyed out, and with all launcher buttons greyed out too. typing causes icons to be selected on the desktop rather than characters to appear in the search field, or sends those keypresses to whatever other application previously had focus. clicking on the search field doesn't help. clicking outside has no effect either. clicking on a launcher button dismisses the window. This doesn't happen all the time, but about 10-20% of the time. I don't know how to reproduce it on demand.
