Hi Andrea, Thanks for the reply. It wasn't until I posted that I noticed my unity version was still old. Goes to show I shouldn't make assumptions about what gets updated!
Cheers, Robin Robin, a fix for this issue is scheduled for next SRU (almost ready!). Resetting unity from tt1 should be just fine. Or you can run metacity --replace. 2015-01-08 17:01 GMT+01:00 nybbler <nybble...@gmail.com>: > I've just run into this with Ubuntu 14.04.1, updated today at about > 15:45.
