** Description changed: The GNOME settings application takes very long time to open. Might be caused by gst-plugin-scanner, which exhibits high CPU usage after the Settings app is launched (and until the time it opens). + + EDIT: I think I may have narrowed down the issue to graphics drivers. + The laptop I'm using is an NVIDIA Optimus laptop. I installed Bumblebee + a few minutes ago and the issue seems to be gone (at least as far as I + can see for now). 1) The release of Ubuntu you are using 18.04 LTS 2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center 1:3.28.2-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 - 3) What you expected to happen Settings application opens almost immediately, no high CPU usage 4) What happened instead Settings application takes around 20-30 seconds to open, while gst- plugin-scanner hogs the CPU (at the same time).
