I think I have the same problem with oneiric. Except when this happens to me it brings down my computer and I have to reboot (see bug #843265).
If you run anki from the terminal, do you see this message? QWidget::setMinimumSize: (MainWindow/AnkiQt) The largest allowed size is (16777215,16777215) For me anki works fine under metacity but not unity or gnome-shell. It used to work in natty (but with a 1.2.8 deb downloaded from the anki website). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/843341 Title: Anki hangs at startup and disrupts Unity To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/anki/+bug/843341/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
