Public bug reported: As suggested in: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1546279 I run the 'unity' command from terminal so I have the app menus in the menu bar but the command hangs in the terminal. When I close the terminal I have the message: 'there is still a process running ...' Notes: If I run the 'unity' command in Ubuntu Trusty (same PC, different partition) the command completed and does not hang. Also in Ubuntu Wily (same PC, different partition) the command hangs.
