Okay, sidx64 reported success with Bumblebee. ** Description changed:
**************************************************************************** NOTICE: If your problem no longer occurs, please report your graphics card/integrated graphics. Thanks. Linux Mint 13 should not have this problem. Anyone can confirm? Report if you no longer have this problem in Linux Mint 13. The problem seems to be with Gnome Shell. Linux Mint, Ubuntu and even Fedora (which is not closely related to Ubuntu) have this problem. Please try to get Linux Mint, Ubuntu and Fedora developers as well as Gnome developers to solve this problem for all Gnome Shell users. (Linux Mint developers released a patch some time ago but some users still report crashes) **************************************************************************** **************************************************************************** POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS - USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! **************************************************************************** If you try one of these, please REPORT if this solves the problem for you. Remember to type "inxi -Gx" and paste the output here. **************************************************************************** TEMPORARY SOLUTIONS #1 by wei2912 **************************************************************************** This "fix" is meant to prepare your system. Try this "fix" before trying out the others to make sure if the problem still persists. First, upgrade your system. If it works, report your graphics card. sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Simple commands to upgrade all packages. Maybe a fix for a driver of your graphics card/integrated graphics has been released, and thus you should try this first to determine if it is a driver-related problem. If it still doesn't work, get drivers for your graphic cards (If you don - 't have additional drivers get those drivers. If you do have additional drivers uninstall them instead). + 't have additional drivers get those drivers. If you do have additional drivers uninstall them instead - please state which one you did in the report). + + Nvidia Optimus: + http://bumblebee-project.org/ + Nvidia drivers: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us AMD drivers: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx Works for: Mao Mao (Intel HD Graphics 3000) **************************************************************************** TEMPORARY SOLUTIONS #2 by Nanovarium * For Gnome-shell only. **************************************************************************** Updating to Gnome 3.4 fixes the issue. However, IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO TRY THIS SOLUTION ON A PRODUCTIVE SYSTEM. IF YOU TRY THIS, MAKE BACKUPS. MAKE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND THIS. The following commands will install gnome and gnome-shell 3.4 on Ubuntu and Mint: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ricotz/testing sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3 sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade sudo apt-get install gnome-shell No random crashes have occurred since I did this. Works for: Alexander Ast (Intel HD Graphics (before Intel Sandy Bridge)) **************************************************************************** TEMPORARY SOLUTION #3 by Goulou **************************************************************************** See this post: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/889706/comments/267 To detach the modal dialogs from the main window you will just need to execute the following command (in a single line) inside a terminal window: a) GNOME gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/shell/windows/attach_modal_dialogs false --type bool and restart Gnome-Shell (F2, type r, hit Return) More details here : http://gnomeshell.wordpress.com/2011/09/10/the-modal-windows-behavior/ b) Cinnamon: gconftool-2 --set /desktop/cinnamon/windows/attach_modal_dialogs false --type bool and restart Cinnamon-Shell (Alt+F2, type r, hit Return) Works for: Goulou Hugo Zyzz **************************************************************************** FIXES TO RESTORE GNOME-SHELL (does not fix the crashing): **************************************************************************** Restarting xserver (Ctrl+Alt+Backspace)works. Restarting the display for gnome-shell (DISPLAY=":0.0" gnome-shell)works. Reloading gnome-shell with Alt-F2 - then type r. A reboot works. Using ctrl-alt-F1 and killing the Xorg process. ============================================================================= Error messages from geordish: Nov 16 10:27:06 mercury kernel: [ 939.313318] gnome-shell[1814]: segfault at 1d8 ip 00007fae12793644 sp 00007fff40a78238 error 4 in libclutter-glx-1.0.so.0.800.0[7fae12757000+ff000] Nov 16 10:27:06 mercury gnome-session[1726]: WARNING: Application 'gnome-shell.desktop' killed by signal Nov 16 10:29:36 mercury kernel: [ 1089.887909] gnome-shell[6475]: segfault at 2f00006854 ip 00007ffe797946a4 sp 00007fff925547b8 error 4 in libclutter-glx-1.0.so.0.800.0[7ffe7975d000+ff000] Nov 16 10:29:37 mercury gnome-session[1726]: WARNING: Application 'gnome-shell.desktop' killed by signal Nov 16 10:38:58 mercury dbus[922]: [system] Reloaded configuration Nov 16 10:39:33 dbus[922]: last message repeated 2 times Error messages from kmb42vt: 1.
