[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1295909] Re: Unity spread trigger ruins windows and freezes desktop
MY SOLUTION: Recently when i turned the hot corners on my window spread started crashing everything. here's the workaround: 1. Turn off window spread (no don't its awesome) 2. disable hot corner command (if it's conflicting with another command) ###3. install compiz manager then _> unity plugin -> on the left side there you'll see "use this plugin" uncheck the box unity will crash but the window will remain opened. Then check "use this plugin" again and you'll see it says conflicting key bindings found. disable conflicting keybindings. and you are all SET :) :) :) CAUSES FOR THIS: It seems that multiple command for a single function of unity causes this. for me i had cntrl+super+d -> show desktop, then i enabled the hotcorner show desktop and it started crashing on window spread. thanks -- 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/1295909 Title: Unity spread trigger ruins windows and freezes desktop Status in Compiz: Triaged Status in Unity: Confirmed Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The latest update disabled window spreading and when triggered crashes the desktop.
