I added comments on GNOME bugzilla, but I have more comments relevant to just Ubuntu.
When this locks up, there is almost no way out for me. Ctrl+Alt+Backspace hasn't worked in a long time, so that's not an option. Ctrl+Alt+1 (or 2-6) works, but because of some other bug (NVIDIA, perhaps) the VT is invisible. (I also get a sort of "backlight bleed" effect sometimes.) The VT is present so I can log in and `killall gedit`, but I have to do it blindly. There's also no sshd by default, so I couldn't even log in remotely to kill the process. There needs to be a way for a user who doesn't know these tricks to get back to working system without pulling the power. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/880962 Title: dnd pointer lock when dragging tab between two gedit instances To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gedit/+bug/880962/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
