Public bug reported:
Ubuntu Release: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
Lightdm Version: 1.26.0-0ubuntu1
In some programs I can't get out of fullscreen.
I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver with Unity. I installed Unity because I
simply don't like GNOME. The problem is that some programs get stucked in
fullscreen, freezing the screen, not getting any response of any kind. The
mouse moves, but that's it. Killing the process does not resolve the issue.
This problem came with Ubuntu 18.04 or Unity since the release of Bionic
Beaver. At this point I'm used to it. I get rid of it by going to terminal with
ctrl+alt+f4 and typing "sudo service lightdm restart" or by rebooting with
"sudo reboot now". But It's kind of a nuisance having to do this everytime. The
programs that get stucked are Stellarium, Whatsdesk, SMPlayer and some flash
players in firefox. Everyday I upgrade Ubuntu and Lightdm hoping this to be
solved, but nothing happens.
Weird thing: When I restart lightdm the problem dissapears until I sleep or
reboot my notebook.
Attached here is the "cat /var/log/syslog" output when the problem is
ocurring using Whatdesk (at 19:53:01 I restart lightdm).
