Drag And drop freeze

Hello arch community,

I've a problem since few months, gui freeze sometimes (but not every times) when I drag something into something else.

I'm using arch linux 5.11.12-arch1-1, with i3 4.19.1

I really can't find any pattern... With the same file, sometimes it freeze sometimes not...

I someone got an idea...

Thanks !

Re: Drag And drop freeze

Can you post some logs from when it happens?  Start a program from the command line, and the reproduce the crash, and see if there's anything dumped to stderr/stdout? For example:

firefox >> crash.log 2>&1

Re: Drag And drop freeze

I tried to already, but there is no error message or anything, I tried:

dragon file.wav >> crash.log 2>&1

But when it freeze there is nothing...

(It freeze randomly, once on 5 approximately...)

I'm sorry I have nothing to give you to begin to think.... I don't where to start...

ps: For debugging, I have to go to an other session with <ctrl+alt+F2> and killall dragon

pps: how do you markup things like code ?

I still have the same problem, random freeze with dragon program (https://github.com/mwh/dragon)...
Why am I alone with this problem ?
It certainly is a part of the answer of this problem...

Re: Drag And drop freeze

I know now that the problem doesn't come from dragon, same thing happen with Thunar for exemple...
So i3 problem ?
