[hatari-devel] Re: immortal hatari

Quick update on this... it seems to be resolved now.

Still not sure what was actually wrong - but I figured since Hatari was no longer in the running process list, the 'zombie' window was at least partially an Ubuntu (or SDL?) problem rather than a Hatari one.

So I force-reinstalled ubuntu-desktop and some related packages and the problem went away. The app closes properly now without requiring a reboot. :-|

Fun!

I'm having a bit of trouble with Hatari v1.8 on Ubuntu 16.10.

I can launch it and it seems to work ok - until I try to quit. 

Upon quitting, it remains stuck in its Unity window. I can drag it around the desktop, but can't close the thing. It really won't die. However it doesn't show up in the process list anymore - not as 'hatari' anyway. It seems to have become detached from its window in some unhelpful way.

This happens if I use the Hatari UI Quit button, or the window close button.

I've been launching it from the command shell, if that makes any difference.

Any thoughts? Clues? Any useful info welcome. O_o
