GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 701733
black windows and black workspaces
Last modified: 2021-07-05 13:53:24 UTC
On fedora 18 I noticed the following problem: If set to false the modal dialog option ' attach ' after a while any new window open, even the pop-up appears black and the newly created workspaces are black. If you try to restart the shell pops up the message unrecoverable problem and you must terminate the session. The problem grows even more if there is any program, like changing background wallpapoz automatically and if picture_filename addresses and picture_uri are not identical, but doesn't seem to be the cause of the problem, although it also seems to play a role the thumbnail generator.
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
