Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: metacity
Metacity (I think? could also be X...) hangs hard every once in a while.
It's pretty irregular, but it has happened probably 5-10 times since I
installed Karmic on my laptop some weeks ago.
What happens is that all windows and the wm suddenly stop responding to
mouse clicks and other input. I can still move the cursor around, but I
can't actually do anything. No menus work. No keycombos work, eg ctrl-
alt-F1 to change to a console, or ctrl-alt-arrows to change desktop. The
only keycombos I get to work are ctrl-alt-sysrq-keys, and ctrl-alt-
sysrq-k kills X and the wm, but they don't come back again, so I need to
follow up with ctrl-alt-sysrq-b.
