  [Impact]

  I'm seeing a several gigs (more than 70GB) a day of
  org.gnome.Shell.desktop log entries.

  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/602

  [Test Case]

  With 2 monitors connected, simply lock the screen and leave it locked
  for a while. The error messages will be logged into syslog until all
  the empty space is filled up.

  More info:
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/243

  [Regression Potential]

  Low. The fix (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-
  shell/merge_requests/243) is a minor correction to window destroy
  logic, written by the main Gnome Shell maintainer.

[abdo]

i have the same issue on fedora 31 
gnome-shell is sending thousands of log messages
journalctl --disk-usage  shows about 3G of logs and it's still increasing 
i hope the fedora team fix this issue soon

  [Impact]

  I'm seeing a several gigs (more than 70GB) a day of
  org.gnome.Shell.desktop log entries.

  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/602

  [Test Case]

  With 2 monitors connected, simply lock the screen and leave it locked
  for a while. The error messages will be logged into syslog until all
  the empty space is filled up.

  More info:

  [Regression Potential]

  Low. The fix (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-
  shell/merge_requests/243) is a minor correction to window destroy
  logic, written by the main Gnome Shell maintainer.

[Brian Smith]

Apologies for my previous message. Somehow I missed that a proposed fix
was available for testing. I'm having trouble figuring out how to
download the proposed fix, but I'm sure I can figure it out with time
and research. It's been years since any variant of Linux has been my
primary personal OS, so I'm still in the early stages of re-
familiarizing myself with everything.

By the way, since I forgot to include it before:

  I'm seeing a several gigs (more than 70GB) a day of
  org.gnome.Shell.desktop log entries.

  With 2 monitors connected, simply lock the screen and leave it locked
  for a while. The error messages will be logged into syslog until all
  the empty space is filled up.

  Low. The fix (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-

  logic, written by the main Gnome Shell maintainer.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1772677] Re: gnome-shell filling up syslog with thousands/millions of entries with stack traces ending in osdWindow.js (lines 206/207 in bionic, lines 223/224 in cosmic)

[Brian Smith]

Is there any fix or workaround for this bug? I installed a brand new
copy of Ubuntu 18.04 on a brand new 512 GB SSD three days ago on
Saturday evening (2019-03-09). I installed online updates during
installation. It is now Tuesday evening (2019-03-12). The computer has
been locked for most of the time since installation.

In my /var/log directory, I have two enormous files:
syslog (188.2 GB)
syslog.1 (264.5 GB)

And one smaller compressed older file:
syslog.2.gz (313.6 MB)

(I can confirm the issue I am experiencing is the error related to
"osdWindow.js:207" on 18.04.)

This needs a fix ASAP! I can't have my desktop filling up its storage
with hundreds of gigs of errors every day! (~188 + ~264= ~452 GB in two
or three days)

I've attached the output of ls -l /var/log for proof since these are
some of the largest hard numbers I've seen mentioned in this thread.

** Attachment added: "Output of: ls -l /var/log"

[Giampiero Salvi]

I had the same issue, followed David's instructions, but I still get a
rapidly expanding syslog file when I lock the screen. I am running
Ubuntu 18.04.02 with gnome shell 3.28.3, dual monitor and intel
graphics.

Something I can see is that when locked the screens are first turned to
black, then they go in sleep mode, and then they suddenly come back to
life, without any input. The continue these steps cyclically. My
interpretation is that the asynchronous sleep mode between the two
screens triggers a change in resolution that wakes the screens up and so
on. But I can't confirm that.

No issue, you might have something more updated than actual archives
though.

[David]

Just installed on my machine. Followed the instructions here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed to enable the -proposed
in the GUI.

Then I did create sudo vim /etc/apt/preferences.d/proposed-updates to
limit proposed updates.

Then I ran:
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install gnome-shell/bionic-proposed

On reboot, I have:
$ gnome-shell --version
GNOME Shell 3.28.3

I've locked my computer for ~5 minutes twice, and have yet to see any
issues in my syslog. I'll continue to monitor.

Also, I had an issue where any time I locked my screen or it went to
sleep, my vms in Virtualbox would freeze and go into a state where I
couldn't interact with them (though I could still ssh into them). That
seems to be fixed here as well. Super excited if true.

Any issue if I go back into preferences and disable -proposed updates
now?

[Łukasz Zemczak]

Hello strangedata, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gnome-shell into bionic-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-
shell/3.28.3+git20190124-0ubuntu18.04.1 in a few hours, and then in the
-proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)

Does this mean that the fix for the bug in cosmic is not present in the
3.30.2-0ubuntu1.18.10.1 gnome-shell upload (currently in -proposed)?

** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  I'm seeing a several gigs (more than 70GB) a day of
  org.gnome.Shell.desktop log entries.
  
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/602
  
  [Test Case]
+ With 2 monitors connected, simply lock the screen and leave it locked for a 
while. The error messages will be logged into syslog until all the empty space 
is filled up.
+ 
+ May or may not have any relation to using an SSD hard drive.
  
  UNVERIFIED
  Connect multiple monitors, trigger some OSD windows, disconnect a monitor or 
just suspend the system.
  NEEDS MORE INFO
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/243
  
  [Regression Potential]
  
  Low. The fix (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-
  shell/merge_requests/243) is a minor correction to window destroy logic,
  written by the main Gnome Shell maintainer.

We're working on getting this fix into all the current Ubuntu
releases...

Can someone please fill in Test Case in the description at the top?
