[Bug 1705369] Re: Ubuntu 17.10 boots to black screen when using Nvidia drivers (on a desktop with an Intel GPU)
It has been clear for a while now that Ubuntu actually has a 2-year release cycle. I have used ubuntu since 8.10, always using the most recent release but since 10.04 I have considered that LTS stands for long term STABLE because of exactly this kind of problem with 17.10. So I now consider the non-LTS releases to be a "dev/tester" release. Ubuntu doesn't officially say that, but I notice that if you go to the download page, 16.04.3 is the first option available. I think that Canonical should just be honest about it. I would still use the "dev/test" releases and they could take more risks. When I recommend an ubuntu distro to a new user, I will usually recommend the LTS because I don't want them to have to mess around and be put off.

[Bug 1716982] Re: Dash to Dock still visible on lock screen under gnome-shell
FWIW, i was using dash-to-dock with ubuntu-dock still installed after today's update, the dash (ie not the modified dock) was visible from lock screen and I was able to interact with it (ie clicked on icons and when unlocked found associated programs open). workaround: apt-get purge gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock apt-get autoremove (not required but I like to just in case) reboot all back to normal -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1716982 Title: Dash to Dock still visible on lock screen under gnome-shell To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock/+bug/1716982/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1729893] Re: lspci and lshw causing total system freeze
After two further re-installs, I had almost given up on using the terminal for hardware detection. However, today I did an update and for some reason this seems to have fixed the problem there were three packages to update but I didn't pay too much attention because they didn't seem to be related to my issue. Anyway, all seems to be working well for now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1729893 Title: lspci and lshw causing total system freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-terminal-app/+bug/1729893/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm not sure what fixed it but the recent update seems to have done the job. Whether it was a software conflict, I'm not sure, but as I seem to have been the only one affected I'll mark it as fixed. ** Changed in: ubuntu-terminal-app (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1729893 Title: lspci and lshw causing total system freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-terminal-app/+bug/1729893/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

addendum I've just tried booting to a root console and it runs normally there and quite snappy, but after returning to a normal GUI, the terminal app problem persists. Also trying to open an x.org session freezes the system requiring hard reboot (regardless of NVIDIA being on or off). 17.10 sucks on XPS15 9560 :-( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1729893 Title: lspci and lshw causing total system freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-terminal-app/+bug/1729893/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
