Public bug reported:
I am running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on my production machine which is a Dell E
4300 laptop. For emails and Webex, I have a VMware Workstation 9
installed which is running Windows XP professional 32 bit
Often, when I am in full screen in Workstation and have Webex running
fullscreen, if I need to click back to my second monitor (Ubuntu
Desktop) the screen briefly flickers and lightdm crashes.
Generallu Firefox is the only application that is running on Ubuntu at
that moment and all Windows menubars etc dissappears and there is no way
to gain access back to the desktop or the applications other than a
restart of the machine aby hitting the Alt+Clrt+F1 and logging in and
issuing a "reboot" command
A sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm restart does not fix the issue.
This is consistently being hit in 2 out of three Webex sessions
