I had lots of such crashes in Gnome-shell (3.0 or 3.2, did not test with 3.4). See comment #236 I suspected a mis-behaviour in how modal windows operate. Indeed, switching the way they are attached to the parent window completely solved the problem. More details here : http://gnomeshell.wordpress.com/2011/09/10/the-modal-windows-behavior/ I haven't had any more crashes for the last 3 or 4 weeks, after "detaching" the modal windows.
My configuration is as follow : Fedora 16 Linux 3.3.2-6.fc16.x86_64 Juniper [ATI Radeon HD 5600/5700] [1002:68B9] AMD Proprietary drivers (same problems with 12.1, 12.2, 12.3) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/889706 Title: Gnome-shell randomly crashes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/889706/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
