Desktop racing problem in F20
Dear Fedorians: Recently, I was hitting a number of odd behaviours that look like races. Filed a couple of bugs: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1082092 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1082095 But this feels unsatisfactory, because reproducibility is extremely low for all cases.

Re-plug and it goes away. - Screensaver forgetting to blank. Move cursor and problem disappears. - Applications may not map on screen on start. Click on activity again usually fixes the problem. I think there were more, I just can't remember them all. In each instance it's easy to blame firmware, kernel, whatever. But there are several. If RAM was bad, I imagine I'd see crashes. But no, system is stable. Also, F19 worked fine. Of course it's most difficult to find a black cat in dark room when it is not in the room, so I'm wondering if I'm seeing things. If anyone else is seeing a sudden onset of racing behaviours after upgrade to F20, please let me know. -- Pete -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct

Thanks for sharing. Perhaps some bad updates went in? If we only see the 3 areas, it may be 3 unrelated bugs. I just asked in case there are 10 races. Did you file any bugs? I'll be happy to dedup. -- Pete -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
