Public bug reported: System: Ubuntu 16.04.2 32-bit + HWE Graphics card: GF 7300GT Driver: Nvidia 304.135
With Nvidia's legacy driver opening the dash over a maximized window results in a freeze of X. X can be restarted through Ctrl + Alt + Backspace. Switching to nouveau solves the problem. As long as a window remains unmaximized, there's no problem, even if it fills the entire screen. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: 304.135 7300 dash freeze maximized nvidia unity window -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1704597 Title: [Ubuntu 16.04][7300GT][Nvidia 304.135] Unity freezes when the dash is opened over a maximized window To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1704597/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
