Public bug reported:
As a NetBeans IDE developer, I am frequently launching the IDE (a Swing-
based Java application) in one or more copies. From time to time when
opening the IDE main window (i.e. a javax.swing.JFrame) while running
Unity 2D, unity-2d-panel suddenly crashes, leaving a blank space
(showing the screen background) where the panel normally is. The window
manager continues to work, so I can switch between apps using Alt-TAB,
but the panel and all its applets are gone.
Running 'killall -HUP unity-2d-panel' restores the panel in this case,
meaning I guess that the process was still alive but somehow not
responding.
I have not yet managed to pinpoint the exact conditions under which this
bug happens. Generally it is when I already have one copy of NetBeans
running and then run a second (testing) copy, though this does not
reliably trigger the bug by any means. I use (Oracle) JDK 6u31 and 7u3,
both in the 32-bit version.
Will attach a redacted copy of my ~/.xsession-errors from the current
session. You can see several instances of "WARNING: Application 'unity-
2d-panel.desktop' killed by signal" - any immediately preceding messages
might be related to the crash.
