A little more on this being nvidia-specifc: My machine with Nvidia card and Nvidia's drivers has this bug. It doesn't happen under Unity 2-D. And not under the nouveau driver -- but that forces Unity 2-D, anyway.
A machine with a Radeon card and Xorg radeon driver, doesn't show the bug. All this is under Unity 5.4. I also tested downgrading to Unity 5.2.0-0ubuntu5, under the nvidia 295.20 drivers. That appeared to show the bug, too. I didn't get to test that at length, but it may be that the bug didn't arrive just with Unity 5.4. ** Tags added: nvidia -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/935766 Title: Unity Launcher does not reveal itself when hidden To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/935766/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
