I think the problem with installing software is a separate bug (#1070745). The fix described here seems to work: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1070745/comments/8
Double clicking the launcher doesn't seem to cause any problems for me, but attempting to drag launcher icons causes the UI to freeze. To get things back to normal, log in from a tty (ctrl+alt+f[1-6]) and run "compiz --replace". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1169493 Title: Unity DE Stops Responding When Double Clicking Launcher/Dash, Installing Software from Ubuntu Software Center, or Attempting to Drag Icons on the Launcher To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1169493/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
