Please see comment #13 and #16. For crashes it is important that everyone initially logs their own bug. This bug is for user 'gnufied' only, and has expired due to lack of response from them. Yes, gnome-shell has many crashes. We are tracking them and trying to get them fixed. However it is

I find that Gnome crashes frequently when using Google Chrome, as well as when I'm undertaking computation-heavy tasks (statistical analysis, etc.) Log output: INFO: task gnome-shell:1491 blocked for more than 120 seconds. Unrecoverable failure in required component org.gnome.Shell.desktop

So due to differing stacktrace here, I think #911591 is likely a different issue than this one. Different stack library means different codepath. @fermulator: Does seem a bit odd at first glance... does gnome-shell use .NET or C# (gdk-sharp)? libgdk3.0 is a valid package name in Ubuntu, but

I am seeing gnome-shell crashes also. However, it usually appears related to OpenGL window resize events as well as xrandr display resolution changes. Errors in dmesg mention libmutter: [15040.472843] gnome-shell[32127]: segfault at 8 ip 7f327f29d5d0 sp 7ffeccf94a38 error 4 in

I do not know why this was changed to invalid. This is a critical issue that has clearly introduced a regression set of crashes. (there MAY be confusing reports from other users for other issues, but I can confirm the originally submitted report) This isn't fun, several times per day a crash:
