Hi there ..... There were some recent posts about Thunderbird freezing. This morning, I had a similar experience with Gparted. I wanted to shrink the partition on a 32 GiB SD card and make an EXT3 partition in the unallocated space. Android can use this for extra storage. First using Trusty - it froze and greyed out. The SD was still flashing, but after several minutes, it stopped flashing and Gparted crashed. Exactly the same thing happened on Utopic.

My wife has Saucy on her PC and Gparted did the job just fine on that one. This seems to be a far wider problem than Thunderbird. At the moment, as of yesterday's update, Utopic is barely useable. I think there's some conflict in Compiz. Maybe that will go away in the next few updates, but in view of this freezing problem, I wonder if there is an underlying fault in Unity/Compiz? Any thoughts?

Regards,        Barry Drake.
