Public bug reported:
The Summary is just the most distinctive symptom now. There seem to be a
number of related pre-release reports, but none of them seemed the
correct link to what I'm seeing. Only Firefox seems to have access to
the Menu bar now. All other programs display only the program name, but
no menu options.
Machine is a generic Toshiba notebook dual booting with Windows 10
(upgraded from 7) in another partition. Upgraded to Ubuntu 16.04 a few
days ago with no apparent problems during the upgrade process. (Just
started testing with a desktop machine running Ubuntu 16.04 in a VM, but
I'm still hoping that the peculiarities are just operator failures.)
Not sure if it's related, but there are also problems in the BOINC
Manager on the Toshiba notebook, but I think the Menu bar problem is the
probable root problem. In the BOINC Manager, the problem symptom is a
reported memory problem, but at this point I'm pretty sure the System
Manager is correct and there is plenty of RAM available.
I am not certain the Menu bar is owned by Unity, but my research seemed
to indicate it was the responsible process. I am not sure how else I can
help apart from reporting the peculiar behavior. It was pretty difficult
for me to even figure out how to run apport-cli against unity. Glad to
run such other tests as might be helpful.
