Public bug reported: Context : when I start Unity, Compiz takes ~40Mo of RAM. But when I use my computer hours and hours, then it takes more than 100… 150Mo. So since many years, I regularly restart Unity with "unity --replace", and it works : only relaunch the interface, and less RAM.
But since I updated to 16.04, this command completely crashes and closes some of my opened applications. But only some, not all. For example : - firefox crashes - thunderbird crashes - geany crashes - system monitor crashes but - nautilus remains open - gnome-terminal remains open I only want to restart the general interface, and it worked perfectly for years. If I can provide more informations or logs… ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1613297 Title: unity --replace crashes/closes some applications (but not all) since 16.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1613297/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
