Public bug reported: Upgraded to HH and was happily using it for some time. However, the fact that stock kernel is using only 3.6 GB of RAM instead of 4 GB, which I have, was bugging me. So after some googling I installed the 2.6.24-17-server kernel, as it's compiled with HIMEM support. After reboot, Ubuntu is now using 4 GB of RAM and all things more or less work as expected.
The problem. When I click on Gnomes Log Out Button in order to shutdown my PC, instead of usual dialog box offering me to reboot/shutdown/etc, desktop icons and ALL panels disappear. What is left is plain desktop background. So now I have to Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to get the login window and then use button there to shutdown the PC. So there's obliviously something wrong with nvidia driver / compiz (which I'm using) . I can add any other needed info in case devs need it. -- Laurynas Paukste ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Upgraded to HH and was happily using it for some time.
