GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 693722
Frequent crashes when unlocking after suspend
Last modified: 2013-02-13 16:26:38 UTC
Frequently, gnome-shell crashes while I'm trying to unlock my screen, after suspend/resume. This is a security issue since gnome-shell is automatically restarted in the "normal" (unlocked) mode, and seems to leave DPMS settings in an inconsistent state as well (the screen turns off after just a few seconds of inactivity, since gnome-shell never had a chance to reset it). gnome-shell 3.7.5-52-g2b1a661 mutter 3.7.5-53-g995e804 gtk 3.7.8-22-g97c2354 backtrace of the latest crash: (gdb) bt
+ Trace 231510
