Public bug reported:
- Right-clicking **folders** works fine.
- Right-clicking **files** causes Nautilus to freeze.
- Running Nautilus with software rendering avoids the crash:
``LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 nautilus''
- Similarly, resizing the **gnome-text-editor** window causes it to freeze.
- Running gnome-text-editor with software rendering avoids the crash:
``LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 gnome-text-editor text.txt''
This strongly suggests a regression in the NVIDIA 580 driver with GTK4/EGL
rendering.
--------------------------
Steps to reproduce:
-Open Nautilus.
-Navigate to any directory containing files (e.g. PDF, PNG).
-Right-click on a file.
-Open text editor: gnome-text-editor text.txt and resize the window
using mouse cursor.
Actual result:
Nautilus freezes. After a few seconds, it needs to be killed.
gnome-text-editor freezes. After a few seconds, it needs to be killed.
