MP, I face exactly the same bug. My workaround: Hovering over "invisible" unity dock location in the search for synaptics (wich requires admin password). When this is clicked (started) I can switch with alt-tab towards the password entry field (even if it is not visible in the foreground!) Putting in my admin-password "blindly" will start synaptics and will bring back unity-2D dock and gnome panel to its original state.
While this works, it is boring and I hope someone can investigate with this information a bit more. I might also do so if somebody instructs me what to do. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1207229 Title: highlight background of calc cell hides/crashes unity-2D dock and gnome panel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1207229/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
