Just to be sure it is indeed a problem with the window manager, have you tried opening gvim or emacs not-maximized in Unity-2d. You can do this by logging out and choosing Unity-2d from the menu located at top right of the password field.
Since Unity-2d uses Metacity and Unity-3d requires Compiz, the same problem should not repeat with Metacity. If Gvim still freeze, then we can be sure it is problem with Compiz. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/886450 Title: Gvim hangs with blank window if not maximized To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vim/+bug/886450/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
