Yeah. I had the same thing happen when I upgraded to R3.2 as well. I
asked the same thing but nobody replied.

It still happens from time to time. Seems to happen less if I have a lot of free memory. Closing down some memory hungry AppVMs seems to lessen
it, but I haven't been able to specifically replicate it.

Interesting, because I think I have more than enough memory (32 GB). Thanks.

I've got 16GB myself. It's not that the memory is full, but it seems to happen more when I have a lot of VMs open in one desktop. That may just be a coincidence though.

I'm glad to see it wasn't just me though. I never had this happen with earlier versions of Qubes on the same hardware. Not sure if it might be the XFCE or a video driver issue. (I've never installed the nVidia drivers.)


Thank you both for reporting this. Gaijin, I'm sorry I missed your thread.

Just to confirm: Are you both using Xfce4?

I used the default install parameters of R3.2. xfce4-about in dom0 shows I'm using version 4.12. The same hardware since R2 has not experienced this.
