On the matrix chat Nils mentioned that "im on nvidia 550 atm and on wayland. i had some X11 crashes in the past and wayland does a much better job so far"
So, I changed my session type to Wayland by logging out and using the gear by my username to select wayland. Doing that seems to have an issue with "Settings", clicking the setting gear or running `gnome-control- center` resulted in a segfault. I did some googling, and saw that this might be a nvidia driver issue, so I upgraded my drivers from `nvidia- driver-350` to `nvidia-driver-550`. After a reboot the segfault in `gnome-control-center` went away, and the logout crash also seems to be gone as well. I tested it by letting the screen dim, waiting 10 minutes, and then pressing a few keys. Instead of crashing it went right back to my session. Of course it would be nice if crashes didn't occur in the out-of-the-box Ubuntu 24.04 install, but in this case there seems to be a simple solution: Use Wayland and 550 drivers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2064037 Title: GDM session crashes after returning from a screen-off.
