Title:
Gnome Shell crashes randomly
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
When using Ubuntu Gnome 16.04, it is common for gnome-shell to crash
unexpectedly, especially when performing intensive tasks.
I've found that I was able to replicate the error by following these steps:
Download and install a copy of Ubuntu Gnome 16.04.2 in VirtualBox.
Open a screen displaying App icons in a menu, such as the app grid in the
Gnome Shell overlay or the Arc Menu Gnome Shell extension
(https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1228/arc-menu/).
Install all the latest software updates from the Software Updater or Synaptic.
Upgrading all the packages between 16.04.2 to 16.04.3 seems to over-load
Gnome Shell and cause the crash in the middle of the installation process.
This crash always seems to occur after opening a screen with app icons and
I'm not sure why.
I've attached my .crash file updated with a symbolic stack trace.I hope this
info and my attachment proves helpful in fixing the issue.
