Reinstalled the same NUC with 18.10, installed package updates &
rebooted.

The stack traces appear to occur every 10 seconds once locked when
checking the output of "grep osdWindow.js syslog".

Installed Friday afternoon and came back in to work Monday to find the

Mathieu,
Hmm, same source file osdWindow.js but different lines of code 223-224.
And the callers are the same as this bug. So it sounds like the same bug
in 18.10 but the line of code has moved.
Please verify that you do not have any gnome-shell extensions installed?

I am rotating syslog hourly - which isn't ideal but mitigates the

anywhere near as dire.

I am facing this issue too. Is there a workaround as I have very limited

Yours seems to be a different bug (mostly ending at messageList.js), so
please open a new bug for that.

I'm having a similar issue. Not sure if it's the same bug or not, as my
logs are slightly different. I installed 18.04 on a new ssd two days
ago. Each time I come back to my machine after leaving it idle, I find
my harddrive is full, and syslog has grown to 9-10GB.
The repeating entry looks like:
OK. FYI here is the offending source code:
_relayout() {

let monitor = Main.layoutManager.monitors[this._monitorIndex];
if (!monitor)
