[Bug 1396232] Re: Desktop freezes when Do starts if quiet mode is not enabled
** Description changed: + [Impact] + + The desktop appears to freeze when Do starts if quiet mode is not + enabled in the preferences. This is due to Do deadlocking while holding + an X11 grab. + + [Test Case] + + *) Install Do + *) Start Do. + *) Your desktop will appear to freeze. Switch to a VT and kill gnome-do in order to regain control of your session. + + (If not a clean install, ensure “Hide window on first launch (quiet + mode)” is *not* checked). + + [Regression Potential] + The fix completely removes the use of GDK threading. As Do already delegates all GTK calls to the main thread this should be safe. I was going to fix LP: #1344386 by removing the threading initialisation, but thought that simply locking around Gtk.Application.Run() was a safer minimal fix. HAH! + + The worst case is that Do crashes rather than freezing the desktop, + which is pretty much still a win. + + Original (extremely detalied!) report: + gnome-do and Xorg/unity/desktop seem to be incompatible on a fresh install of either utopic or vivid. This is either tied to 1080p (1920x1080) or a fresh install of either version. Details as I know them are provided here. I have a brand new machine which is running 1080p to an HDMI monitor. I installed Ubuntu 15.04 fresh from a usb install (usb-creator run from an existing, working vivid machine). As with all new machines, I go through my new install check list: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BarryWarsaw These are slightly out of order, and this problem crops up after doing all the apt-get installs, apt-get update, and apt-get dist-upgrade. After all that, a reboot, and a re-login, the desktop is corrupt and unusable. I see the top menu bar extend from the right but only about 1/8th of the way to the left (the rest is desktop background), the dash only displayes on the lower left about 1/3 of the way up (again, desktop background the rest of the way), and neither the mouse nor the keyboard work at all. I must ssh in to reboot (or hard reboot of course). The system is still operational as the ssh shell works perfectly. The desktop is simply corrupt visually and unresponsive. The login screen after boot seems completely functional though. Mouse works fine as does the keyboard (or I wouldn't be able to log in!). Some additional data points make this even more interesting. On a different disk on this very same machine, I installed OS X 10.10.1, and VMware Fusion 7.0.1. Inside Fusion, I installed Vivid from daily live build iso of yesterday (11/24/14), and went through the same steps. I get exactly the same corruption and desktop freeze. I took a snapshot of the disk and then installed Utopic fresh from an iso downloaded via the normal www.ubuntu.com download site. In Utopic, I took a disk snapshot, and then I again went through the same apt-get steps and the desktop is again corrupt and frozen. This leads me to believe that one of the packages in my new machine buildout are to blame. I should also mention that in Vivid, I installed vmware-tools but in Utopic I did not. No difference (except that with vmware-tools I can set the display to 1920x1080, i.e. the full physical screen, while without vmware-tools, I cannot get full screen resolution from System Settings - Displays). Oh, I tried booting each of the previous kernels, with no effect. So now, I went back to the Utopic snapshot I took right after installing from iso and confirmed that everything works perfectly fine. Desktop is not corrupt and keyboard/mouse are responsive. Through the process of elimination, I would take a disk snapshot, install a few packages, test login, rinse and repeat. I was able to narrow it down to gnome-do and its dependencies. Specifically, after installing gnome-do and its dependencies, the desktop was broken as described above. Reverting to the disk snapshot pre-install of gnome-do, confirms that everything works fine. So now, I installed gnome-do and its dependencies, witnessed the corruption and freeze, and then ssh'd in and then did `apt-get purge gnome-do apt- get autoremove`. gnome-do and its dependencies were removed, I rebooted, logged in and everything was fine again. I went back to the Vivid disk snapshot, purged gnome-do and autoremoved, and *its* desktop was fixed. Clearly the problem is related to gnome-do in both Utopic and Vivid and/or one of its dependencies. After submitting this bug I will reboot back into Vivid running natively on the hardware, ssh in, purge gnome-do and its dependencies and see what happens. I suspect the desktop will be fixed again. As if this is not interesting enough, I have two other desktops currently running Vivid, and both have gnome-do installed, *and* both work perfectly well! The big difference here is that both of them have been dist-upgraded to Vivid through existing
