The ALT+TAB window switching menu only appears on my primary (laptop) screen, not the screen that is active. The top-bar, where notifications live, is also not-present on my second monitor. Both these behavior are new since in-place upgrade from 17.10.
Any way I can get back the previous behavior?
If I reboot the router (Netgear DGN2200) my Ubuntu 11.10 Server box does not reconnect to the network. This is over a wired link either with a reserved IP Address over DHCP or a static IP Address configuration in /etc/network/interfaces as:
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.100
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
network 192.168.1.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
Both connection methods fail after a router reboot i.e. no ping, no ssh, no http. I have never had to do anything special to ensure reconnection before - but am I missing something?
Thanks
