--- Begin Message ---Package: gnome-shell Severity: important Hi, It crashes almost every day. I noticed it when I could not unlock my system after leaving it under lock state for some time. I have to get into text console (ctrl alt f2) and then kill gnome-screensaver, come back to graphical console and restart gnome shell (gnome-shell --replace) with an open window of gnome terminal (using alt tab). In this state Activities or other menus on the top panel does not respond. The error I see on the terminal after it crashes is JS LOG: pushModal: invocation of begin_modal failed JS LOG: pushModal: invocation of begin_modal failed and there are some error messages when gnome-shell starts gnome-shell --replace& [3] 7560 pravi@savannah:/tmp$ JS LOG: GNOME Shell started at Tue Jun 12 2012 15:59:10 GMT+0530 (IST) JS ERROR: !!!

Individuals will not be linked properly and creating new links between Personas will not work. The configured primary PersonaStore's backend may not be installed. If you are unsure, check with your distribution. I have noticed it from 3.2 itself. I use a work around, but it would be difficult for users not familiar with command line. Other windows I commonly have opened are emacs, gnotem icedove and iceweasel.
