Public bug reported: Hello,
Since the upgrade to Ubuntu 23.10 with Gnome45, it is no longer possible to restart gnome-shell without crashing the session. The only way not to crash it is to close all applications before restarting gnome-shell. I have verified this too. This has already been reported upstream: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/7050 a tentative patch for mutter proposed: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/7050#note_1876598 Please consider reviewing/testing this patch and pushing an update so people can restart gnome-shell session without crashing it. ** Affects: gnome-shell Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Affects: mutter (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "proposed patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2040453/+attachment/5713163/+files/patch.txt ** Bug watch added: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues #7050 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/7050 ** Also affects: mutter via https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/7050 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2040453 Title: Gnome 45 crash on restart in X11 session Status in GNOME Shell: Unknown Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Hello, Since the upgrade to Ubuntu 23.10 with Gnome45, it is no longer possible to restart gnome-shell without crashing the session.
