Public bug reported:
It happens very frequently that, after resuming from suspend, as soon as
I enter my password into GDM, gnome-shell crashes. I initially see my
windows appear for a moment (with titlebars, etc.), then gnome-shell
crashes, the titlebars disappear, and I am unable to do interact with
any windows. Eventually gnome-shell restarts itself and the titlebars
and functionality are restored.
This doesn't happen 100% of the time, and I have not been able to find
any correlation. In my syslog, I see lines like:
Aug 10 14:30:49 hermes org.gnome.Shell.desktop[5325]: Window manager warning:
Failed to set power save mode for output VGA-1: Permission denied
Aug 10 14:30:49 hermes org.gnome.Shell.desktop[5325]: Window manager warning:
Failed to set power save mode for output eDP-1: Permission denied
Aug 10 14:30:58 hermes gnome-session[6503]: gnome-session-binary[6503]:
WARNING: Application 'org.gnome.Shell.desktop' killed by signal 6
Aug 10 14:30:58 hermes gnome-session-binary[6503]: WARNING: Application
'org.gnome.Shell.desktop' killed by signal 6
This is on Ubuntu 17.04, gnome-shell 3.24.2-0ubuntu0.1, under Xorg with Intel
HD 4600 graphics. I experience the same crashes under Wayland, making it
*completely* unusable. At least under X I can still recover my session.
This is particularly annoying because whenever gnome-shell dies, it
triggers a separate issue that kills all active Firefox content
processes, requiring me to restart Firefox as well.
If there's a way to get some better debugging info for this, please let
me know.
