Bug description:
Ubuntu Precise 12.04 Beta 2 AMD64 DVD:
I am running Ubuntu Precise 12.04 Beta 2 in a VirtualBox 4.1.8 session.
VirtualBox Guest Additions have been installed via "jockey-gtk" from the Ubuntu
Precise repository, and Unity is running in 3D mode with Compiz.
When the Unity Launcher is set to "autohide," the Launcher will never reveal
when the mouse pointer is moved to the left edge of the screen. It does not
matter how much "pressure" is applied; the Launcher never appears.
I have tried the following VirtualBox window "form-factors," all with the
same result (the Launcher never appears):
-- VirtualBox session running in a non-maximized window
-- VirtualBox session running in a maximized window
-- VirtualBox session running full-screen
I have attached a screen capture (OGV) with Ubuntu Precise running in a
maximized VirtualBox window.
