Here are more details: For gnome shell extensions, I only have 1, launch-new-instance and I will remove it but doubt it is the cause of this problem but I can live without it for a while.
As for recovering, I should mention that the system does recover on it's own. The laggy system can last from seconds to perhaps 60 seconds. I have been monitoring for kernel messages and watching htop and have not seen any load increase or any process come to the top for CPU usage. Perhaps there is some IO or interrupt storm that I should look for. My system has 6 cores and the CPU usage is low even during these events. -- 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/2004063 Title: mouse pointer becomes laggy after some time and progressively gets worse Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Over some period of time after logging in the mouse becomes laggy and eventually unusable. I generally have a lot of Chrome tabs open. The time period can be minutes to maybe an hour. I am not sure if Chrome is required to cause the problem yet but I have experimented with changed Chrome versions and enable/disable hardware acceleration in Chrome and that did not make a difference.
