Go to Activities, type 'xt' and see the xterm icon appear 5. Click on the xterm icon 6. Boom This was originally encountered by installing tigervnc-server-module which comes with a config file specifying DefaultDepth 16 but clearly the vnc server itself is not required. gnome-shell outputs the following message before crashing: mutter:ERROR:x11/iconcache.c:301:standard_pict_format_for_depth: code should not be reached Analysis of this function shows that it doesn't believe that 16-bit pixmaps exist.

Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '24'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.

On one of the T7500 ubuntu 17.10 boxes (nvidia 340 package, Quadro K5000 card), I did sudo "do-release-upgrade -d". Went fine, but on reboot, the desktop would come up for about ten seconds, then the system would shut down. Did systemctl set-default multi-user.target then removed all traces of the proprietary driver with sudo apt remove --purge nvidia-340 nvidia-opencl-icd-340 nvidia-settings nvidia-384 nvidia-opencl-icd-384 nvidia-prime libcuda1-340 and rebooted. Logging in to the console and running 'startx' reproduces the problem reliably, and does not shut down the system. Installing lwm, and a .xinitrc that started an xterm, let startx succeed, and the system was stable running firefox, so it's not an obvious graphics problem. /var/log/syslog says Apr 25 09:59:41 rbb-ubu1710-3 org.gnome.Shell.desktop[3936]: ** Apr 25 09:59:41 rbb-ubu1710-3 org.gnome.Shell.desktop[3936]: mutter:ERROR:x11/iconcache.c:303:standard_pict_format_for_depth: code should not be reached Apr 25 09:59:41 rbb-ubu1710-3 org.gnome.Shell.desktop[3936]: == Stack trace for context 0x556d30f3c4c0 == Apr 25 09:59:41 rbb-ubu1710-3 dbus-daemon[690]: [system] Successfully activated service 'org.freedesktop.fwupd' Apr 25 09:59:41 rbb-ubu1710-3 systemd[1]: Started Firmware update daemon.
