Here's another symptom, though it may well be unrelated. This bug
affects my work computer, on which I have ubuntu 14.04 LTS, 64-bit. On
that computer, when I use the workaround, i.e., quit software updater
and start it, a window appears for it and I can use it to update. But
the window can't be
The command below reserrects the hidden Software Updater window when

I can’t even click on the “affects me too” link - it always comes back

Ubuntu 14.10 Utopic (clean install): Just got the window (classic way:
updates became available), can keep it for while in case further testing
needed.
The session was locked (login screen) when update-manager was spawned.

I found a way to duplicate this issue.
Run the following script in a terminal:
#!/bin/sh
sleep 10
update-manager --no-focus-on-map
Before the update-manager pops up, log into a Guest Session. Wait
about 10 seconds, then switch back. Enter your password at the greeting
screen. Then
I can confirm following:
* The issue is definitely available in 14.10 Utopic (clean install, not
upgrade), seen multiple times already.
* I see this issue for years in different distributions and can surely
state that it's appearance tightly connected to the way how update-
manager is started.
I somewhat like the idea of tagging this as a security issue. Maybe
that'll get more traction.

I don't understand why this issue is not being picked up. It should
probably be considered a security bug, because it prevents people from
using the software updates.
I know my way around apt manually, but people that don't will be missing
their much needed security updates. And for every person
Me too. :-) Yup, just updated my laptop that's running 14.10. Software
Updater is on the side, I can right click on it and tell it to install

But doesn't show a window.

This is still happening on 14.04. I too have multiple monitors, with the
middle one being the main monitor. There have been other programs which
can't cope with that, perhaps it has something to do with this problem
as well?
It would be quite nice to have it confirmed for trusty. It only shows as

This seems to happen very regularly to me on 14.04. I also saw it on

I haven't experienced this bug in a while, but the only similarity in my
set up to Justin's is the multiple monitors. My setup was a laptop and
external monitor. I might have had them configured to show the dock on
both screens, but I've changed it to show only on the left, external

This bug appears on my 14.04 twin-screen PC running Unity 7.2.3 and my 14.10
laptop running Unity 7.3.1.
So I don't believe it's anything to do with the number of screens.

I also still experience this Bug in 14.04. It is interesting how
canonical cares about such a severe issue - meaning that they leave it
as it does even occur in a LTS release. I wonder why it is not
confirmed by now for trusty.
And there a reports for it in utopic und some duplicates around. So
Honestly, I think this particular bug is fixed. I experienced it, and it
has been fixed for a couple versions now.
Perhaps you all are seeing the same symptoms with a different root

I'm experiencing this exact same problem after upgrading to 14.10 from

Eric Lambart, did you close the app by right clicking on the launcher
icon and choosing Exit from the menu, before trying to launch it?
To find the app, you have two options:
1. or write software update (without the final r) in the dash (Super

2. choose System

One other thing--I think Compiz tends to crash every night, because in
