https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video- intel/+bug/1025092 and is reported here also, affects nvidia cards: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2167023 steam launcher is suspect (since its the first thing to load), and it also affects gnome. as the xserver-xorg-video-intel package team says, its probably because of a pageflip race condition.. possibly the unity dash teams fault. i am willing to provide logs and other details. just ask :) i am using the amdgpu 1.99 drivers from the oibaf ppa. they work well, but this dash problem has plagued me over 2 distros and countless driver versions for over a year! its either steam, wayland or a common demonator between gnome and unity. thanks for your time. ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1581366 Title: Clicking Home on Unity Horizontal Dash Freezes WHOLE COMPUTER To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu/+bug/1581366/+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
