Oddly enough, after doing a reinstall of 16.04 xdiagnose does properly prompt me for a password and starts.
The password prompt reads "Authentication is needed to diagnose graphical issues". Gnome shell is 3.18 while dpkg -s outputs 3.8.4 as the version number. Any idea why it is working for me? Will installing the updated package break anything as its already working? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1483276 Title: Unable to launch xdiagnose through the Activities Overview in the normal way To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-shell/+bug/1483276/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
