Ok, actually that's not needed... Just use this: sudo gdb -p $(pidof gnome-shell) -batch \ -ex "set logging on" -ex continue \ -ex "bt full" -ex "call gjs_dumpstack()" \ -ex quit This could be run from your session too and should not freeze anything. When you get a crash, just attach

Paul, you need to do that from another system via SSH or from tty3 (or any free one), although you still might not be able to go back to the tty when frozen... So having another system around (using byobu too) would help. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of

So this is mostly triggered by extensions (and considering how things are done, we can't prevent them). Or some wrong JS code which we didn't identified yet. Crash for users using dash-to-panel is fixed (I've proposed the fix upstream https://github.com/jderose9/dash-to-panel/pull/263), for the

Indeed these bugs might be triggered by one extension, more than vanilla experience, but they still underline issues in the code, so it's still a bug we've to fix. As I said, if you happen to catch this wile running gnome-shell in gdb, please run `call gjs_dumpstack()` from the gdb shell in order
