Gnome Shell freezes regularly after updating to 22.04 #1462
Comments
Try updating the system and restarting |
I can reproduce that on on Ubuntu 22.04 (Shell 42.1), I have a single 16:9 display connected at all times, only have the Pop Shell extension installed and the built-in Ubuntu AppIndicators and UbuntuDock.
|
Maybe it needs pop-os/gnome-shell#110 |
Installing all new updates as of yesterday and restarting does seem to have fixed this for me. One day without issues while connected to an external monitor (and this issue used to occur every hour) |
Is there any other solutions to this? I have an updated system but experience this daily, sometimes multiple times. It happens frequently when launching intensive applications (games) that take control of the full screen or consume a large allocation of RAM. Albeit that may be more coincidence than much else. Below are the only logs I can see journalctl SYSLOG_IDENTIFIER=gnome-shell -xe
My uname -a: |
Same happens Here. Usually when alt-tabbing, it randomly freezes while everything is working, discord games looks to be running, but the UI is simply unresponsive. This have been happening for a while to me, even after updating. uname -a: Linux pop-os 5.19.0-76051900-generic #202207312230 |
same here, all the time |
Likewise on v42.5 (Ubuntu 22.04.1) and this happens more as the process gets older. Freezes can last from 3 to at least 30s. Restarting the gnome-shell process solves the problem for some time before it becomes obvious again. |
Same here, it freezes frequently for 30s~1min then works fine again, pretty annoying tbh |
I have this issue as well. Process and applications that increase freezing: locking the screen and unlocking the screen by signing in, and VSCode. I'm on 22.04. |
I've been experiencing this issue as well. From what I can tell, the screen freezes when running any hardware-accelerated applications (Discord, watching a video on Firefox/Brave). Console generally works if I press This behavior has been exhibited on two different machines. Pop!_OS Version: 22.04 (NVIDIA)

@rezarajan This is usually caused by critical errors in the graphics driver. You can watch kernel logs with |
Same issue here on Pop!_OS 22.04 on two different laptops. I have always a second screen connected, so can't say if that is a condition for this freeze to happen. I have the feeling that it always happens when I am in a browser window, on the first laptop I work with Firefox, on the other with Chrome. Suddenly scrolling does not work anymore and everything is frozen. However, the mouse pointer works and changes when hovering over window borders for example. journalctl SYSLOG_IDENTIFIER=gnome-shell -xe:

Happening to me as well on Ubuntu 22.04. I run POP!_OS as well on a different laptop so I just happened to see this thread. UPDATE: |
Try disabling animations from the accessibility settings panel |
Good suggestion. Tried that. Still seeing same behavior. |
I have this same, as a workaround I switched to hybrid graphics, and it is working so far: edit: found a even better workaround which is working stable. I set permanently Nvidia to Maximum Performance and Hybrid graphics. Funny thing is, that it is not drawing any more power, and switching between internal and Nvidia GPU without problems. https://rastating.github.io/how-to-permanently-set-nvidia-powermizer-settings-in-ubuntu/ |
Been biting me too now. Always happens in chrome. |
Found in dmesg:
|
Ahhh, nvidia and their buggy drivers. |
maybe it will all be fixed in 2028 |
Hi Everyone, Not sure if this is the right place for this, maybe someone can direct me if not. I have been plugging in my pixel 6 pro just to charge, not allowing usb access, but gnome will freeze SOMETIMES ... I know this is the issue because when I unplug my pixel 6 pro the system magically wakes up like nothing is wrong. Here is the most recent logs from /var/log/syslog ... maybe this will mean someone to someone but it isn't obvious to me.
|
Just adding an update here to say that I've not had any more freezes anymore for quite some time now. Probably since shortly after my last update. |
I am still experiencing these issues. |
(1) Issue/Bug Description:
I am seeing the issue reported here https://www.reddit.com/r/pop_os/comments/v389gi/hello_friends_my_pop_os_2204_is_freezing_after_a/ (and given the number of upvotes many users seem to be affected). In brief, PopOS Gnome Shell occasionally freezes and has to be rebooted via Ctrl + Alt + F3, log in through the terminal, run
sudo killall -1 gnome-shell
, and then switch back to the graphical login using Ctrl + Alt + F2. This happens every few minutes and is quite annoying, especially as I am on a Lemur Pro, which I would expect to be compatible and tested with PopOS. The issue seemingly only occurs when an external monitor is connected (I believe) and I see this message in the journalctl log:Window manager warning: Overwriting existing binding of keysym 6f
, same as what was posted by another reddit user.(2) Steps to reproduce (if you know):
Connect an external monitor and wait?
(3) Expected behavior:
No freeze
(4) Distribution (run
cat /etc/os-release
):22.04
(5) Gnome Shell version:
GNOME Shell 42.1
(6) Pop Shell version (run
apt policy pop-shell
or provide the latest commit if building locally):(7) Where was Pop Shell installed from:
I am running PoPOS, installed by system76 on my lemur pro.
(8) Monitor Setup (2 x 1080p, 4K, Primary(Horizontal), Secondary(Vertical), etc):
One external UltraWide
(9) Other Installed/Enabled Extensions:
Battery time, edge gap, hide top bar, weekstarts on monday
