Hi,
I opened a topic one week ago (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=177769) about a GNOME bug. Today I create a new topic because after investigating I discovered that I was totally wrong,
so you don't need to read my old topic. Here is my problem : when I launch a xsession (it can be by GNOME, KDE or even LightDM etc...), I can open windows but randomly (it seems to occur 100% when I alt-drag a window)
my windows freeze in a certain way. I can always alt-tab, type text inside or use keyboard shortcuts but I can't move or close the window and toolbars freeze too. So with my poor knowledge I suppose the problem comes from
the window manager. The very odd thing is that when I switch to an other tty and then come back in my desktop environnement, the problem disappears and then never come back until I reboot.
I checked journalctl and I have 0 errors... I have an intel core i5 4670 CPU and an HD 7950 GPU, so MAYBE there is conflict between intel graphic chipset and my graphic card. Nowaday, I'm with a fresh install with only xf86-video-ati driver.
As I said I tried with GNOME and KDE so it don't depend of the desktop environnement. If someone has an idea just tell me.

You need the catalyst most likely.
I may have to CONSOLE you about your usage of ridiculously easy graphical interfaces...
Look ma, no mouse.

I installed the catalyst driver today but it changes nothing. Other idea ?

Hello, any news on that ?
I am also suffering on Fedora 20 using Gnome 3.12 from this behavior. The madest thing is, that everything ran ook for days and then suddenly the system began to behave like described.
Mouse moves, the active windows reponses, when I move the mouse cursor to the top left corner - the activities button - the Gnome shell display those ripples, but does not open the activities. Window decoratio does onot respond, the journalctl shows:
gnome-session[1617]: Gjs-Message: JS LOG: pushModal: invocation of begin_modal failedevery time I move the mouse over the activities button.
As long as I switch to another tty and back everything is OK. I also found this call for help - https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-s … 00029.html Everything points to the conclusion, that this is not Gnome 3.12 or 3.10 specific issue.
My computer has an Core I3 Haswell CPU and I use the onboard Intel graphic 4600 GPU. I think this issue is somehow hardware specific.
