Public bug reported: Binary package hint: unity
i have a dual screen monitor setup with twinview and NVIDIA proprietory drivers (v270). I can't find the stack but unity crashes during startup. Ubuntu runs fine in Ubuntu (safe mode) and there are far less errors in the terminal when i run unity than before i updated today. unfortuneatly, im not too clued up on debugging except on how to use "ubuntu-bug" command, so i dont know the dump files. basically, it loads the top panels and the indicators but displays identically for both screens (i.e no twinview-ness). n then it stops accepting key inputs. so i have to reboot the computer.
