Hi All, <br>
<br>
I'm running 3 computers, each with a different version of Ubuntu -
namely 12.04, 12.10 & 13.04. While in the past, I've experienced
a problem here and there on a specific version after an update, this
is the first time that I'm experiencing the same problems across the
board on all 3 machines. This would seem to indicate that there's
something fundamentally wrong somewhere.<br>
<br>
The problems are:<br>
<ol>
<li>Nautilus hangs in the middle of copying/moving files to/from
either USB drives or over my LAN. Copying just stops, and the
only way to get rid of the copy dialogue is to restart the PC.
No error message, nothing - just stops.</li>
<li>Libre Office (running different versions on all these
machines) hanging at increasingly shortening intervals, until it
becomes unusable. The only way to get Libre Office to load again
after a hangup, is to restart the machine. Sometimes even that
doesn't work.</li>
</ol>
Is anybody else experiencing any of this? As I say, if it was just
one machine, I'd blame the machine, but its all 3, and all 3 Ubuntu
versions, and all began directly after the last major update a few
days ago.<br>
<br>
Any assistance welcome.<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
