So I upgraded to 11.10 from 11.04.
When I log into my account using unity or gnome classic, my computer becomes very slow (slow drag of windows etc) and eventually it freezes (within a few minutes).
By freezes, I mean that I can still move my mouse pointer around and see the caps lock light come on for the Keyboard. But I can't click on anything and I can't Crtl-Alt-Delete or anything of the sort. Unable to click or do anything, I eventually have to hard reset my desktop to get out of the situation.
I am however able to use OpenBox or KDE without problems.
I saw some posts saying there may be problems with upgrading from 11.04 to 11.10. So I booted using a 11.10 liveCD and since it boots you directly into unity, I face the exact same issue!
Any help would be appreciated else I'll have to go back to 11.04 :(.
