Bug#670097: gnome-shell: random hang causes data loss

This is a multi-part MIME message sent by reportbug.


MIME-Version: 1.0

Package: gnome-shell
Version: 3.2.2.1-3
Severity: grave
Justification: causes data loss

Hi,

From time to time the Gnome shell will just freeze/hang and not accept any input

(keyboard or mouse) and all I can do is restart gdm3 or the laptop. Now I'm in
the same situation and the latest changes made in a document I'm writting are
going to be lost as I have no way to save them.

This is the second most annoying thing for me in Debian 7.0 (wheezy). I cannot
tell what causes this, there is nothing in the syslog.
I've attached the current process listing - maybe you can spot something.

Thanks
