@Metta Crawler: But this bug report is about the fact, that in some circumstances it becomes greyed-out (deactivated). This bug was filed to raise the issue and get somebody to look into the reason for it.

My last post simply pointed out that the work around you describe does not work for those affected by the bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1301776 Title: Update manager is really small and not resizeable Status in Unity: In Progress Status in Unity 7.2 series: In Progress Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “compiz” source package in Trusty: Triaged Status in “update-manager” source package in Trusty: Invalid Bug description: update-manager 1:0.196.9, Ubuntu Trusty Update manager's window, and especially its fields inside the window, are way too small and also it's not resizeable, making it almost useless at least on my HiDPI screen (3200 x 1800). https://launchpadlibrarian.net/171657786/update-manager-is-small.png <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareUpdates#expanded>: "The Updates Available window should be manually resizable only when it is in this expanded state."
