GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 764253
Stuttering / lagging desktop animations after suspend
Last modified: 2020-10-28 18:30:31 UTC
Desktop animations start to lag/stutter after I resume from a suspended session (although not after every suspend). This is most noticeable when opening the dash overlay, switching desktops, or mousing over the dock (dash to dock extension), so that it slides out from hiding. It is also slightly noticeable when opening and closing windows. After a restart of gnome shell (alt+F2, type "r"), all animations are butter-smooth again. I'm using the Lenove Thinkpad Yoga 12 2nd gen laptop, intel graphics and I have installed libva, intel-xf86, and mesa.I have configured /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf as detailed in the arch wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Intel_graphics). I originally reported this issue in the Antergos forums (https://forum.antergos.com/topic/4149/stuttering-lagging-desktop-animations-after-suspend/2) and at least one more person posted that they have the same issue.
I can confirm experiencing exactly this. Fedora 23 here.
Hello, why isn't this being adressed?

Same here on a fully-updated Fedora 27 on a Thinkpad T450s (Intel Corporation HD Graphics 5500). I didn't reboot or shutdown very often my notebook and so I use a lot the supend-to-ram. Gnome becomes extremely laggy after 2-3 suspend cycle and the only workaround is to to a <alt-F2>+r to restart gnome-shell. :( Name : gnome-shell Version : 3.26.2 Release : 4.fc27 Architecture: x86_64
It is still a problem for me on my latest Arch Linux with gnome-shell 3.28.2 (I encountered this since at least Gnome Shell 3.18 i.e. over 2 years now, and I just don't remember if that was ever working fine for me). Please, suggest where could I start digging. I have Lenovo Y50-70 laptop with a 4k display, which has 48Hz refresh rate, so my first guess is that it might be the cause (some sort of sync/timer issue). A bunch of Linux kernels, Gnome Shell, and other updates landed since the first time I noticed this, and this issue doesn't occur on KDE (Plasma Shell), so I believe it is Gnome Shell bug.
Is this still a problem in recent versions (preferably 3.38, or maybe 3.36)?
It seems to be resolved now. I haven’t seen it for a while now
