Title:
Unity HUD stuck open, launcher is not responsive and --reset has been
deprecated
Status in Unity:
Expired
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
The HUD is now stuck open on my system, I am unable to close it at
all. I didn't even open it. I hit alt-tab to switch apps and the HUD
opened instead. Now it won't go away. Additionally, the launcher is
no longer responsive. I can mouse over and un-hide the launcher, but
any clicks are sent through to whatever application is underneath the
launcher. The icons no longer launch anything.
In the past, I would have simply fixed this by running 'unity --reset'
in a terminal, but that has apparently been removed, thank you very
much, so now I am unhappily left with no option that I can see but to
reboot my machine to fix this weird unity behaviour.
Unity is still quirky and buggy, I don't think removing the --reset
option is the best thing to do for now.
