# Why can't the desktop remember that I don't want mirrored displays when I connect my laptop to the docking station?
+ * this bug actually can't be reproduced every time I plug in an external monitor. It's hard to tell if there's an underlying logic.
- # oneiric regression: When I connect a DisplayPort monitor, sometimes the audio switches to it (but sometimes it doesn't, I couldn't figure out why). The output setting is buried deep into Control Panel / Sound Settings / Hardware / Profile, so it took me a while to figure out what had happened the first time.
+ # oneiric regression: When I connect a monitor to the DisplayPort output, sometimes the sound output also switches to it (but sometimes it doesn't, I couldn't figure out why). The sound output setting is buried deep into Control Panel / Sound Settings / Hardware / Profile, so it took me a while to figure out what had happened the first time.
- # oneiric regression: Similar to previous bug: sometimes when I switch on the DisplayPort output I get no sound, no matter how I set the Profile in Sound Settings. The only way to make it work is turn off the external monitor and turn it on again.
+ # oneiric regression: (related, but distinct from previous bug) sometimes when I switch on the DisplayPort output I get no sound output at all, no matter how I set the Profile in Sound Settings. The only way to make sound work again is power cycling the external monitor.
- # oneiric regression: no workspace previews in the panel. There's indicator-workspaces on Launchpad (https://launchpad.net/~geod/+archive/ppa-geod), but it doesn't start automatically at login.

+ # oneiric regression: The System Load indicator doesn't start automatically on login.
# oneiric regression: Tray icons, including the bluetooth icon and the KTorrent icon, sometimes disappears from the panel. The icons can still be seen by opening the unity-2d-panel.
- # oneiric regression, FIXED: menus of GTK3 applications appear in the window itself rather than in the Unity panel

=== Window management ===
- # oneiric regression, fixed on precise: windows often open with the title bars hidden by the top panel and you can only drag them out with alt+click.
-
- # oneiric regression: dragging windows around becomes slow and jerky after some time. OpenGL acceleration works fine, it seems like a compiz issue with the intel driver. I can easily reprodiuce this on a Thinkpad X201 (Arrandale), but it's a lot harder to trigger on a X220 (Sandybridge).

- # oneiric regression: when I switch workspaces, sometimes focus goes to a window hidden behind another full-screen window. In general, compiz does not remember which window had focus in each workspace.
+ # oneiric regression: When switching workspaces, focus can sometimes go to a window hidden behind another full-screen window. Compiz does not seem to remember which window previously had focus in each workspace.
# long-time issue, confirmed on precise: When the video mode changes, full-screen windows often get shuffled on different workspaces and don't come back to their original locations when the resolution changes back. This is particularly annoying when plugging/unplugging monitors.
- # oneiric regression, confirmed in precise: the "Desktop Cube" plugin of Compiz makes the display flicker briefly every time I switch workspace. This happens both with a Thinkpad X201 (Arrandale) and X200s (GM45).

# If I drag an icon around in Nautilus, I can often make Compiz hang. Restarting Unity from the console often cures the problem.
# While dragging icons or other objects, I can only switch workspaces by going to the left edge. It doesn't work on the right. This happens with both "Desktop Wall" and "Desktop Cube".

=== Session management ===
# oneiric regression, confirmed on precise: There's no longer a way to save the X session? Before, it was working only for half of my applications, but it would still save some time after a reboot.
# oneiric regression: Switch User Account locks my current session and then it doesn't bring up the login screen. (I'm running gdm, not lightdm)
+
=== Unity Dock ===
# oneiric regression, fixed in precise: the search bar often takes several seconds to show up when invoked with the keyboard.
# Unbootable machine: Something was also broken with X and lightdm, but I have forgotten the details and how I fixed it.
- # Apport no longer starts when something crashes in my unity session. It works for newly created users.
