Title:
  Unity DE Stops Responding When Double Clicking Launcher/Dash,
  Installing Software from Ubuntu Software Center, or Attempting to Drag
  Icons on the Launcher

Status in Compiz:
  New
Status in Light Display Manager:
  Invalid
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Using Radeon HD 7950 with fglrx. If I double click or attempt to drag
  an icon in the launcher/dash the GUI will stop responding (but the
  mouse will render just fine). If I move to a different tty session and
  back, it merely shows a black screen and my mouse cursor. The only way
  to fix it when this happens is to sudo restart lightdm.

  Update: It's no longer a black screen when alternating between tty
  sessions, however it's unresponsive and ligthdm cannot be
  killed/restarted. It's also good to note that whenever installing a
  package with a launcher in Ubuntu Software Center, the GUI will freeze
  up under Unity. Other DE's work fine.
