Description mdjones325 2018-06-06 07:46:32 UTC

For example:

I started running Civ V through Steam at 22:57. At this moment, the desktop does not update. The clock on the taskbar remains at 22:57. Widgets that update processor/memory usage freeze. Taskbar does not reflect open windows.

If I quit civ V (close the program) the desktop reverts to proper operation. Time is correct, widgets update, taskbar reflects open programs. 

If I restart Civ V, desktop reverts to the 22:57 version. Again, widgets don't update, time goes from the correct time back to 22:57, taskbar reverts to the 22:57 state.

Hot corners (for example, desktop switching) is also inoperative when this bug is in effect.

This bug is not consistent, but is repeatable inconsistently.

mdjones325@gmail.com. Happy to follow any instructions to help nail down the problem.

System is a new thinkpad p51, running nvidia drivers on a quadro m1200, most recent kubuntu release.
