Sorry, I am both in a hurry today and confused. Please clarify which crash you would like this bug to be about. If it is the one mentioned in the description (libmutter-cogl-1.so) then more information is required in the form of a stack trace or .crash file.
If the problem is generally just gnome-shell crashing as a result of Xwayland crashing then keep an eye on bug 1505409 and bug 1556601 instead. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 1505409 gnome-shell crashed with SIGTRAP in x_io_error() from _XIOError() from _XEventsQueued() from XPending() from gdk_check_xpending() ["Connection to xwayland lost"] -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1717928 Title: gnome crashes when using qemu display Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Using the qemu vga display under gnome is reliably causing gnome to crash on my laptop. I've seen this when using libvirt and also when invoking qemu from the command line. I've tried several display options for qemu: -vga qxl -vga virtio -display gtk All result in the crash. No crash report is appearing in /var/crash after this happens, but I checked dmesg the last time and found this: [15078.446564] gnome-shell[10327]: segfault at 8 ip 00007f4c53c794af sp 00007ffd7eb03e90 error 4 in libmutter-cogl-1.so[7f4c53c14000+a5000] The crash usually doesn't happen right away. Sometimes it happens a few seconds after the display is opened, other times it's happened when I've moved to another window and then select the qemu display using Alt-Tab.
