I can also confirm this problem. It happens to me in Unity on a repeatable basis: whenever I click the mouse on the desktop to draw a selection, everything freezes momentarily. It doesn't happen when resizing or moving windows, just when I click on the desktop. However, it does happen if I try to maximize a window in Unity
This happens in Gnome3 in other situations, especially in Eclipse. I am using the nvidia-319 driver in the Ubuntu repo. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1184451 Title: Ubuntu 13.10 random screen freeze while Normal OS activites Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have recently, re-installed fresh ubuntu 13.10 distribution release.
