[Bug 1310621] [NEW] Black/Blank screen when open/close apps

 

Public bug reported:

I've upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04 and I see a full black screen for a second
when I open or close an application! I can type while I see this Black
screen so my pc is not hanged!

This happens even when I open a new tab in FF or Chrome...
