Gnome Settings Will Not Open

I've tried to access my settings through the search bar in activities and tried to access user settings in Gnome, yet none of them will open. All I see is the loading icon and it disappears. When I enter the terminal to run gnome-control-center I get this error:

[zzypr@das-arbeitspferd ~]$ gnome-control-center

amdgpu_parse_asic_ids: Cannot parse ASIC IDs: Resource temporarily unavailable

Failed to register: Timeout was reached

Thanks in advance for any help!

Re: Gnome Settings Will Not Open

I had the same issue when I was using Ubuntu GNOME. It is a known bug, I don't think I ever found a fix for it. Maybe someone can enlighten us on this but I believe the only way to fix this is to reload the DE and wait for a fix in the mean time. Keep us updated I'm intrigued.
