Package: gnome-shell
Version: 3.2.1-8
Severity: important
Hi all,
just another bug report on that funny gnome-shell:
Doing some long running task (converting images to smaller size,
several thousands), suddenly everything stopped. I killed phatch
(the converter program) and went into activities to restart it.
Alas, going there, typing "phat" it showed up, so I clicked onto
it and that was the end. gnome-shell did not react to *anything*
anymore. No kbd, no mouse, nothing. I could still switch
between console and X, I could still use the console without
any problem, but gnome-shell decided to go into solipsistic mode
and didn't interact with anyone.
I tried from the console to send gnome-shell some signals to wake
up, but also these were rejected. When I killed the gnome shell
with kill -9, it restarted for a short time, but stopped again.
Then it started to get funny, because I kill -9 again, and then
the window manager was gone, but all the windows (without frames)
were still present. So I closed them one by one (to make sure
that there is no data loss due to this g-s bastard). Then I
killed the gnome-session process which restarted the X server
and I was back to normal.
I captured the output of .xsession-errors (the end of it, where it
started):
------------- end of xsession-errors.log -----------

-------------------------------------------------------
I also collected the output of Ctrl-PrtScr-t, so the running task
traces, I attach the syslog (compressed, otherwise it is too big).
Maybe someone can find an explanation. For me it was looking like
everything froze when I clicked the icon of phatch.
Enjoy
