JohnTeddyI have an laptop that is a couple years old and was cheap at the time, it uses Intel i915 graphics. When I plugin an external monitor, it freezes sometimes. I'm able to move the mouse around, or do control/alt/f2, though nothing responds in the gui.09:38
JohnTeddyI tried updating to xorg-edgers, and x swat ubuntu, then ppa-purge to revert back.. I tried downgrading mesa... nothing I do seems to work.09:38
JohnTeddyI followed various instructions on launchpad.09:38
JohnTeddyI can see errors in dmesg and in .xsessions-errors09:39
JohnTeddyI don't really know how to diagnose this well, and I'm not sure what to do at this point.09:41
jarlathOne application (System Monitor) is behaving odd in terms of window management. I maximize so the window controls are merged with the global-menu and quit. When I next run it, it is not maximized in this way, but as large as it can be as a stand-alone window. No other applicaiton is doing this. What do I file the bug against, the window manager or the applicaition?11:13
mitya57jarlath: I can reproduce this bug with metacity, so please file it against gnome-system-monitor.11:32
mitya57If you give me the bug number, I'll even confirm it :)11:32
jarlathThank you mitya57 . Are you using Unity 2D then? I'm using 3D which means, I think, that compiz is the window manager.11:35
mitya57jarlath: I'm using gnome classic with metacity11:36
mitya57and I can reproduce it here => it's not a bug in some window manager, but in g-s-m itself11:36
jarlathmitya57: that was my next question :) Thanks, I'll have a link in a moment.11:38

jarlaththanks mitya5711:51
jarlathSame issue with update-manager, could you confirm please?11:52
mitya57jarlath: on 12.10 update-manager is not maximizable at all, so I can't confirm it11:56
jarlathmitya57: Okay, I'm on 12.04. Thanks for that.11:57
jarlathCan a 12.04 user confirm my issue for 12.04 before I send a bug report?11:57
mitya57I don't think there are many 12.04 users online here...12:00
hjdmitya57: I think update-manager is maximizable on 12.10 if you have updates available. I can't verify that right now, but I remember seeing the issue you are discussing.12:02
mitya57hjd: thanks12:02
mitya57jarlath: so please feel free to file a bug, hopefully someone will look at it12:03
jarlathmitya57: ok.12:04

TheLordOfTimedariebi, you may want to ask in #ubuntu for help, if it is a bug you can come back here and we can help you file the bug (although #ubuntu would likely say how to file a bug if it is one)17:32
