If you can move the mouse around then Xorg is definitely not frozen. It sounds like only gnome-shell is frozen.

It takes about 30 seconds for gnome-shell to restart, and then the clock starts running (and the system monitor starts updating) again. This problem has been bugging me for a few months now, but I'm not sure when it started. It tends to happen in clumps; sometimes it will go several days without happening, but once it starts it often happens twice pretty quickly, and often a few times across a day. I haven't been able to isolate what causes it, but more often than not it has something to do with clicking on a window or tab in Chrome. (It definitely also happens in other applications, though.) Every time it happens, dmesg contains a stack dump for gnome-shell ("page allocation failure"). I can provide gists of these dumps if that's helpful (and not already included in the apport data). So I'm not sure if this is actually an xorg thing or a gnome-shell thing. % lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 20.10 Release: 20.10 % dpkg -l xorg* gnome-shell* | grep '^ii' ii gnome-shell 3.38.1-1ubuntu1.1 amd64 graphical shell for the GNOME desktop ii gnome-shell-common 3.38.1-1ubuntu1.1 all common files for the GNOME graphical shell ii gnome-shell-extension-appindicator 34-1 all AppIndicator/KStatusNotifierItem support for GNOME Shell ii gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons 20.04.0+git20200908-1 all desktop icon support for GNOME Shell ii gnome-shell-extension-prefs 3.38.1-1ubuntu1.1 amd64 tool to enable / disable GNOME Shell extensions ii gnome-shell-extension-system-monitor 38+git20200414-32cc79e-1 all Display system information in GNOME Shell status bar ii gnome-shell-extension-system76-power 2.0.0~1602857239~20.10~914b531~dev all Gnome-shell extension for System76 Power Management ii gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock 68ubuntu20.10.1 all Ubuntu Dock for GNOME Shell ii gnome-shell-extensions 3.38.1-1 all Extensions to extend functionality of GNOME Shell ii xorg 1:7.7+19ubuntu15 amd64 X.Org X Window System ii xorg-docs-core 1:1.7.1-1.1 all Core documentation for the X.org X Window System ii xorg-sgml-doctools 1:1.11-1 all Common tools for building X.Org SGML documentation ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.10 Package: xorg 1:7.7+19ubuntu15 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.8.0-7630.32~1605108806~20.10~7e52b13~dev-generic 5.8.17 Uname: Linux 5.8.0-7630-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia .proc.driver.nvidia.capabilities.gpu0: Error: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/proc/driver/nvidia/capabilities/gpu0' .proc.driver.nvidia.capabilities.mig: Error: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/proc/driver/nvidia/capabilities/mig' .proc.driver.nvidia.gpus.0000.01.00.0: Error: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/0000:01:00.0' .proc.driver.nvidia.registry: Binary: "" .proc.driver.nvidia.suspend: suspend hibernate resume .proc.driver.nvidia.suspend_depth: default modeset uvm .proc.driver.nvidia.version: NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 455.38 Thu Oct 22 06:06:59 UTC 2020 GCC version: gcc version 10.2.0 (Ubuntu 10.2.0-13ubuntu1) ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu50.1 Architecture: amd64 BootLog: CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: None CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Thu Nov 19 15:05:17 2020 DistUpgraded: 2020-11-16 10:15:57,099 DEBUG Running PostInstallScript: './xorg_fix_proprietary.py' DistroCodename: groovy DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes, if not too technical GraphicsCard: NVIDIA Corporation GP106 [GeForce GTX 1060 3GB] [10de:1c02] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: eVga.com.
