IMPACT Critical: in-app data loss, fsck data loss, forced system reboot GETAROUND Do not drag halting apps between displays To move a LibreOffice Writer window, close it, and launch LibreOffice from a terminal window on the destination display. On command libreoffice --writer, LibreOffice opens on the display where the terminal window is located. For Virtual machines, close the window, move virtual machine manager to the destination display and open the virtual machine window there. The halt is similar to how the system halts when the kernel command line parameter i915.enable_rc6=0 is missing.
