After upgrade today, GNOME crashing on any action

When I press the windows key, the screen flashes, but stays on the desktop view. Trying again crashes GNOME completely, showing me the screen "Oh no! Something has gone wrong." with a button to logout.
My graphics chipset is an Intel i915, using the "xf86-video-intel" package. Everything was working until the upgrade.
I don't think the problem is related to 3D graphics though, because I ran glxgears in xfce without a problem. I checked dmesg and journalctl for errors but didn't see anything promising. Any other ideas how I can debug this?

Re: After upgrade today, GNOME crashing on any action

if you think its related to the update, your first action should be to see what packages were updated.
