8.10, fresh install, two weeks old.
I got rid of the default panel menu and replaced it with gnome-main-menu, to conserve panel space. However, once in a while, clicking on the main menu icon causes my UI to freeze.
My programs continue to run, panel applets like the CPU monitor continue to update, and I can move the mouse cursor. But the keyboard is unresponsive, and nothing responds to being clicked nor mouseover'd.
Ctrl-Alt-Backspace restarts, but next time I click that menu, it freezes again. Rebooting fixes the problem, for a while.
How can I debug this? Thanks!
