Thanks. Unfortunately those crash files don't appear to be related to this bug. That's not completely surprising if the "freeze" isn't caused by a crash.
Next, please get a second computer and ssh into the freezing one (you may need to install 'openssh-server' on the freezing one first). Then reproduce the freeze and while it is frozen, from ssh run: killall -ABRT gnome-shell Wait a minute or two and that should produce a new crash file. Then follow the instructions in comment #2 again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1830936 Title: Wayland freeze 18.04 using VLC To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1830936/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
