Window manager warning: Received a _NET_WM_MOVERESIZE message for 0x4600028 (Social bro); these messages lack timestamps and therefore suck. while the error output is helpful surely a user seeing "these messages lack timestamps and therefore suck." is not at all helpful and should have a more appropriate error message displayed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/561294/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
