[Bug 896378] New: gnome-shell locks up when returning from blanked screen
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=896378 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=896378#c0 Summary: gnome-shell locks up when returning from blanked screen Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 13.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 13.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: bnc-team-xorg-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jdelvare@suse.com QAContact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: Community User Blocker: --- I'm running Gnome in classic mode. After leaving my machine alone and trying to wake it up from the blank screen, it happens frequently that gnome-shell locks up and I can't get back to my desktop. The clock is displayed in the middle of the screen, but no longer updates. The mouse pointer still moves but there's nothing I can do with it. The only way to recover my session from that point is to switch to a console, log in, run "killall -3 gnome-shell", then switch back to X. This only happens with the open-source radeon driver; I never experienced this problem when I was using the binary fglrx driver. I also never experienced this issue on systems with Intel or Nvidia graphics chips. This looks somewhat similar to the issues discussed in this thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=172238 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

So I rebuilt the driver with that commit backported: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:jdelvare:branches:openSUSE:13.1... And since running it I did not experience any single lock-up when returning from the blanked screen. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
