Reset to login screen every time I mount or unmount a usb disk

I've checked the dmesg and no errors there. USB is mounted correctly and I can view it after I re-login.
But basically everytime I stick a usb disk or unmount it from file manager, my session ends abruptly and I'm back to login screen.

I'm using Gnome.

Anybody having similar problems?

Re: Reset to login screen every time I mount or unmount a usb disk

Disable your login manager and start the session manually.  When it crashes, see if there are any error messages displayed that may provide clues.

yes exact same problem. See "Segfault.." by Cbhihe at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=233806 where I document the segfault.

Apparently so.  Merged threads

@ewaller:
@Scimmia:
Oops ! you guys had merged the two threads. Sorry. I just gathered that. Bit slow at the uptake here.
I thought I had made a mistake and published it inside another thread by error. SIlly.
Should revert my new thread ? In any case it contains more details about the issue.

Re: Reset to login screen every time I mount or unmount a usb disk

Just like @cbhihe I thought this was due to latest updates so I tried to downgrade some culprits like: linux, linux-firmware and glib2 but so far no luck

PS: I'm also on a Dell machine: XPS 13 9360 8th gen i7

Re: Reset to login screen every time I mount or unmount a usb disk

Is a coredump produced when the session is closed?  If so what is the backtrace from the coredump?

Looks like it is. The crash happens for binary Xwayland and the coredump is as below

Re: Reset to login screen every time I mount or unmount a usb disk

Knowing what the following calls were would probably help determine the cause

Re: Reset to login screen every time I mount or unmount a usb disk

@cb951303:
Not just on Wayland, also on xorg. (I am not running Wayland)
Working now on getting  a traceback for my case.
Never done this before. Is it just a `$ coredumpctl  list `in terminal ?

Re: Reset to login screen every time I mount or unmount a usb disk

`coredumpctl` wthout any argument will default to listing coredumps then `coredumpctl info $match` where match is the PID of an entry produced by the previous command.
More details covered by `man coredumpctl`

Re: Reset to login screen every time I mount or unmount a usb disk

Oddly

$ codedumpctl info /usr/bin/nautilus

does not give me anything pertinent to the gdm crash. Trying again.

Re: Reset to login screen every time I mount or unmount a usb disk

Are you using the Places Status Indicator?  I would disable it for now until the gnome-shell-extensions package gets updated.  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-sh … /issues/48

I just tried that and it works for me so far.

Re: Reset to login screen every time I mount or unmount a usb disk

Is the Places Status Indicator extension something that is packaged by Arch?

Yes it is part of the gnome-shell-extensions package.

Re: Reset to login screen every time I mount or unmount a usb disk

After update of the `gnome-shell-extension` in the early hours of this morning:
   - the gnome shell login session auto-mounts any usb-drive correctly and shows the drive's label in Nautilus
   - ejecting (unmounting) from the nautilus window also works with no segfault/coredump
On first trial the screen flickered (twice) when ejecting from nautilus. The 2nd time around no flicker.
Looks like the issue was solved.

Re: Reset to login screen every time I mount or unmount a usb disk

Unfortunately, after updating the gnome-shell-extensions package, I was still having coredumps with both mounting a USB drive and with unmounting both from Nautilus and with the Removable Drive Menu extension...

Re: Reset to login screen every time I mount or unmount a usb disk

I can confirm that the issue exists even after updating the package and disabling the places extension solves the issue.

A new extensions package with a bug fix will be the only thing that can solve this. Anyone filed a but report on that package?
