If your mouse pointer still works then that means only the gnome-shell process has frozen or crashed. The mouse pointer keeps moving because it's managed by the Xorg process. So next we need more information about the graphics hardware and to check for historical crashes. Please run this command to collect more system info:
apport-collect 1903986 Then to help us find the cause of any crash please follow these steps: 1. Look in /var/crash for crash files and if found run: ubuntu-bug YOURFILE.crash Then tell us the ID of the newly-created bug. 2. If step 1 failed then look at https://errors.ubuntu.com/user/ID where ID is the content of file /var/lib/whoopsie/whoopsie-id on the machine. Do you find any links to recent problems on that page? If so then please send the links to us. 3. If step 2 also failed then apply the workaround from bug 994921, reboot, reproduce the crash, and retry step 1. Please take care to avoid attaching .crash files to bugs as we are unable to process them as file attachments. It would also be a security risk for yourself. ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- 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/1903986 Title: Ubuntu 20.04 freezes with remmina in full-screen Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: On Ubuntu 20.04 using Remmina accessing remote Windows session to my work and everything was working fine for 5 hours and then suddenly Reminna freezes.
