    So Im testing Unity on Pop!_OS now. There are few weird issues. One of them is that sometime I cannot close unity, it just freeze.

    So I kill all the processes that start with name Unity*. Yet when I want to reopen again, I get a message that says something like "Looks like the project is already opened". So I guess there is some another process running but not named with Unity*. Or maye a file I have to delete?

    It does not happen all the time, but I would say most of the times I have issues with unity remote and I have to reload unity.

    So the only thing thats left is just reset the OS. Well its linux so it boots up fast, but its still a bit annoying.

    Have you experienced that? Any solutions to this problem?

    OS: Pop!_OS Ubuntu 19.04

    Hi @JJ_FX
    I am not sure what is the core of your issues but to get rid off "Looks like the project is already opened", once you kill all processes, go to your project directory/Temp/ and remove UnityLockFIle, should help.
    Looks like Temp directory is recreated every time you start Unity so it's safe to delete, I think.
