I can confirm the bug. This is not Nvidia specific since I use the radeon driver on an ATI card.
I believe the hangs primarily appear when VMware looses focus, but are otherwise completely random. The rate is closer to 1:100 than 1:10. Killing the 'gnome-shell' process with '-KILL' is a usable work around for me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869408 Title: gnome-shell hangs when switching to a running VMWare Player Window in Activities menu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-shell/+bug/869408/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
