Bug#675345: gnome-session: Display randomly freezes completely

May 31st, 2012 - 08:50 am ET by Juergen Fuchsberger | Report spam
Package: gnome-session
Version: 3.4.2-1
Severity: important

Hi,

Occurring at randomly but at least every 30-60 minutes using different
programs:
Suddenly the screen becomes unresponsive: the mouse pointer moves normally, but
the windows do not respond to clicks, and gnome-shell does not work.
tty1 (ctrl+alt F1) works, but I have no local login and thus can do nothing
(using ltsp). Only Solution: To reset the system.

One thing: I found that if I start with session "gnome classic" instead of
"gnome 3" the problem does *not* occur.

Regards,
Juergen

What kind of graphics adapter do you have?
If it is Intel, this could be related to

Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the
universe are pointed away from Earth?
