Thread: Window manager dies during 10.04 -> 10.10 upgrade


during 10.04 lts -> 10.10 upgrade, find myself update grub dialog. unfortunately, it's action buttons behind upgrade progress dialog, , have lost window decorations (so can't change window stacking order). seems indicate window manager has died, because can use mouse not keyboard.

upgrade appears dead in water inability tell grub upgrade go ahead. can launch terminal, can't type it. :(

suggestions besides reboot?

on reboot, suggestions next? (in absence of response, in few hours i'll reboot , @ how recover, updating thread.)

tips.

i've filed bug report, describes problem , resolution.

briefly, resolution hour or of clicking , poking , typing no effect, until mysteriously upgrade understood respond , started again. unsatisfying response ok outcome.
