[Bug 1949618] Re: system locks up when selection one of top 2 items in dash

[Paul White]

Robert, you raised this issue agaist "dash" which is a shell similar to
bash, zsh etc. 'Dash' was a term used when the default Ubuntu desktop
was Unity which has of course now been superceded by GNOME Shell.

Please advise on which "top two icons" you are referring to. Icons in
the top bar (which might vary depnding on the hardware being used) or
icons which are displayed when clicking on the nine dots in the botton
left hand corner of the screen (Show Applications).

I'm moving this bug report to the gnome-shell package.


** Package changed: dash (Ubuntu) => gnome-shell (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
