[Bug 762478] Re: [nouveau] No icons shown in unity launcher when using experimental mesa drivers

 

Here's what I don't get. This is marked as the duplicate of a host of
other issues. Unfortunately, THOSE are not related to the nouveau
driver. Heck, I'm using an intel driver at work, an nvidia driver at
home (nvidia 8500) and an ATI card (FGLRX) and ALL OF THEM have this
exact problem. I can open trouble tickets for all three individually,
but as the others have they will get marked as duplicates of this one.

This is a serious issue that affects the default desktop in ubuntu, and
one that needs to be repaired ASAP for "normal people" to use it.
Logging out and back in, or even killing unity, compiz, GDM, and X
entirely don't work. Reboot is the only solution, and that only works
"sometimes".

I'll get off my soapbox now, but seriously, someone needs to sit up and
fix this before developing anything more for unity (and having a serious
and catastrophic usability problem sitting open).
