Nothing can be run since that is requires a file to be opened. Ctrl+Alt+Bksp is the only way I've found that "fixes" the problem without a reboot (other than not using DE, which is...annoying). Yes there is a bug open against it: <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=486695>. Anything else that causes similar things to happen either need a reboot without Ctrl+Alt+Bksp. - --Ben -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAknNqLAACgkQiPi+MRHG3qQeMgCeIIdsH7FdoCWpV3IoZORtsUES IGsAn06W9wbEY0Dxy5bfdBijaHaemwWT =b9zO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
