Description Graham 2015-04-01 04:30:18 UTC
Recently updated to 3.16 on an PC running arch linux and the gnome shell hangs for several minutes periodical (at least once / hr), when I log in using x11. The desktop does not crash, but is unusable. After waiting a few minutes ~3-4? I can continue using the desktop.

I'm on kernel 3.19 using and the nouveau 1.0.11-3 video driver for a GF119 [GeForce GT 610] graphics card.


Interesting I do not see hangs when I log in using wayland (delighted that wayland + gnome is very usable).

Looks like a driver issue and the messages are very similar to bug 747115 so duping.

I'm finding similar but less frequent hangs with the close source nvidvia 346.47-11 driver also. Attaching journalctl log from last boot.

Comment 7 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 14:21:33 UTC
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/gnome-shell/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
