I have a very similar issue. I did not upgrade however, this is a clean install to 7.04.
I read the above posts and my .xsession-errors is also littered with tons of 'alarm' junk from evolution. The only things that relate to metacity that I can tell are two lines about Window Manager "failing to read theme file ..." However, i have changed back to the default 'Human' theme, restarted X, and the same thing happens. I have my gnome panels, but any windows or dialogue boxes are in the top-left corner. I can type 'metacity' in a terminal, and it comes back but this happens any time I log out or restart X. -- window manager crashes/does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/105390 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
