Re: Gnome 3.2 not working

No news ?
I still have the same issues. I had more time recently so I've tried to log in with a freshly created user but gnome-shell freezes.

@splatterdash : Did you managed to solve it ?

Re: Gnome 3.2 not working

I have also the same Problems !
Sometimes Xorg goes to 100% Cpu or Gnome-Shell or Adobe Flash Player
I use now the Fallback Modus until the problem is alive.

Re: Gnome 3.2 not working

Hi

I have deinstalled Flashplayer 11 and installed Flashplayer 10 from archlinuxfr Repo.
Because Xorg crashes again also under Gnome 3.2 Fall Back Modus.

Maybe can anyone confirm this ?

Thx

Re: Gnome 3.2 not working

guys,

whoever have the gdm freeze bug, can you do this and paste the log and specify the video driver?

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Re: Gnome 3.2 not working

Hi,
For the video driver : I did $cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log |grep driver
And saw : Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/intel_drv.so
So I think this mean udev choosed the xf86-video-intel driver (quite normal, considering that I have an intel chipset.)

Your link brings me to the seventh post of the thread. Am I supposed to do as you say in the seventh post or also what you said earlier in the thread ?
By the way, I've got question about the post itself :
What do you mean by :
4) gdb attach $(/bin/pidof gnome-shell)  → Is it a command to type exactly as it is written ? Does this lead to gdb after ?
5) type in gdb "set logging on" → If I'm in gdb after the last command I understand that I have to type "set logging on", am I right ?
6) type "t a a bt full" → In gdb ? What does it mean ?
Sorry I'm a newbie in gdb, I've always been cheating by using ddd .
Last question about → 1) install this debug packages: http://pkgbuild.com/~ioni/debug/ and fb-client
Am I supposed to download all the packages in the appropriate arch and install them manually or is there any way to use yaourt or pacman ?
Thanks for the help. I might not be able to do the tests in the early moments I have plenty of work those days, sorry about that.

Re: Gnome 3.2 not working

Have you tried deleting ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/application_state file?

It's worked for some people in the past that were getting same error msg.
