Can I provide any other information to help speed this along? This is a pretty severe problem - it's annoying because gnome-shell freezes for a long time before restarting, and then it's extremely annoying because you lose any data in applications that don't survive the restart.
** Description changed: https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/8317377ffa8b8148baa481d490fd876111eb3c4b gnome-shell crashes with this bug every time that: * I am editing a file in geany - * I open the Find window (CTRL-F) - * I move the find window to another monitor, + * I open the Find window (CTRL-F) and it opens on another monitor * I type in some text in the find window and press ENTER (or click the Next button) Note especially that the find window must be on the other monitor - if - it's on the same monitor as geany, gnome-shell doesn't crash. If the - find window opens on the second monitor (so I don't need to move it), - gnome-shell still crashes. + it's on the same monitor as geany, gnome-shell doesn't crash. + + (Note: I originally thought that if I moved the find window to the other + window and then searched, gnome-shell crashed, but I think what happens + is a) I open the window, b) I move it, search for something, and it + works, c) I close it and re-open it - it then opens on the other monitor + and searching will crash gnome-shell.) gnome-shell restarts, but the crash causes data loss, as most of the running applications don't reappear when it restarts. In case it's relevant, I have a laptop screen set at 2048x1152 and an external monitor configured to be above it at 2560x1440.
