I got this bug on my laptop running 13.04 (BTW I think bug #946417 is a duplicate of this one). It causes the touchscreen to not work after several clicks.
I tried running the X from x-staging PPA (add-apt-repository ...; apt- get update; apt-get dist-upgrade; service lightdm restart). After I login, the screen shows a background for some seconds and then a blank screen. ~/.xsession-errors shows these lines: [several lines about loading/starting plugins...] compiz (core) - Info: Loading plugin: unityshell gnome-session[2238]: WARNING: Child process 2352 was already dead. gnome-session[2238]: WARNING: Application 'compiz.desktop' killed by signal 11 gnome-session[2238]: WARNING: App 'compiz.desktop' respawning too quickly gnome-session[2238]: CRITICAL: We failed, but the fail whale is dead. Sorry.... Do I need to use any other PPA to avoid the compiz crash? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1068994 Title: button1 gets stuck after a while To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/1068994/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
