Version 304 says: "WARNING: This is an unstable beta driver. This
package is intended for testers and early adopters, and not recommended
for production hardware."
Are you seriously suggesting I should use that? Given how unstable the
current "stable" version is, I don't dare imaginge how a version that is
explicitely declared "unstable" can be.
Anyway how can this possibly be a graphics card driver issue by the way?
Happened again just now. I'll do an apport collect, hope it provides
some useful data.
** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu)
Status: Incomplete => Confirmed
** Tags added: apport-collected
** Description changed:
I had a few applications open, namely:
- Google Chrome
- a Nautilus window
- Gedit
- a terminal
Suddenly, after clicking on Google Chrome to give it focus, the whole
system hanged and I couldn't give focus to any other window, nor close,
minimize or move the current focused window (which was Chrome), nor do
anything.
- CPU consumption wasn't high (I can tell because the fan cooler wasn't
running fast)
- the Google Chrome maximized window, to which I had just given focus, was on
front
- I could see and move the mouse cursor, but wherever I clicked or dragged,
nothing happened at all
- Moving the cursor to the top of the screen would NOT show the window's top
buttons nor the application menu
- moving the cursor to the left would not show up the Launcher
- alt+tab wouldn't switch to another window
- Ctrl+Super+D would not show the desktop
- left or right-clicking anywhere did nothing
I couldn't save the files that I was editing in Gedit, so I lost a huge
lot of unsaved work.
Additionally, because of bug #1016457, I couldn't even open a virtual
terminal and try killing some process or anything.
The KEYBOARD DID RESPOND, in some way, meaning that for example:
- the Ctrl+Alt+M shortcut that I have associated to the touchpad-indicator
program did work and would disable and reenable the touchpad
- Ctrl+Alt+F1 did show a black screen (which is what usually happen, because
of bug 1016457, instead of showing the virtual terminal)
However neither Alt+TAB nor Ctrl+Super+D (show Desktop) worked.
