Unfortunately no there is no other way right now. If your display server is frozen then you also lose the ability to switch to other virtual terminals, because the keyboard handling for that is the job of the frozen display server.
We should also check this is really a Xorg bug and not a gnome-shell bug. To test that we just need to know if you can still move the mouse pointer during the freeze? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1876489 Title: Xorg freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1876489/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
