That is scary to hear. I wish we could come up with a way of reproducing this to test the scenario itself. > Only run two desktops, seems you don't support individual users anymore, > is that true? These reports on Launchpad are meant for bugs and/or defects not exactly general support. Ideally we can get or determine a root cause and then a fix can be made and pushed. For support questions, configuration issues, one-offs we suggest using the community link [1] and asking for assistance on one of the methods posted there. There obviously can be overlap or when a community asked question results in a bug needs to be filed. To give you a little more idea of how we treat these bugs, every day a member of the Ubuntu Server team gets a list of all the bugs that were created or updated on the previous day. We then spend our time going through them looking for actionable items, responding to others asking for more info, or redirecting them elsewhere. Due to the sheer quantity we cannot always help debug every single report and again hold that is not what this forum is for. Hence, why we will try to redirect others to the community forums for more generic support requests. I hope that helps.
