Partner update
Unity
- Latest round of unity updates before natty finale: 3.8.8 last Thursday and 3.8.10 today!
- lot of crash fixes (ccsm still makes unity crashing under some circumstances though, but it's respawning, so can be a SRU)
- some more intellihide false positive fixes
- small bug fixes (hovering, theme priority)
- updates of the assets: places/launcher icons (UIFe)
- the bfb is now a button (UIFe)
- translations fixes
We also won a non negligeable amount of time at startup in lazy loading the places daemon (only load on request), seems that zeitgeist and xapian database warmup were racing at start
- On compiz side, we had some cherry-pick compiz upload for more crash fixes, fullscreen stacking fixes and such.
- There is still a Xorg hang (reduced as compiz/unity doesn't grab the keyboard as often as before), but still prevent. It's in the Xorg's teams hand now.
For the full story, the usual links: https://launchpad.net/unity/3.0/3.8.8 and https://launchpad.net/unity/3.0/3.8.10
