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.
