I can confirm both the bug with CS:GO (and several other games that go non-responsive for a short while after starting) and that the fix works.
I installed the packages from the ppa and have tested with CS:GO and a couple of others I was experiencing the problem on (Dying Light and TF2 behave similarly) and the games start correctly now and do not block the UI or crash gnome-shell, though they still display the Force Quit dialog. I can do any further testing needed but this LGTM. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848852 Title: Counter-Strike Global Offensive freezes in gnome-shell Status in GNOME Shell: New Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: After upgrade to ubuntu 19.10, when I launch counter strike global offensive from steam the game is frozen. I can alt-tab and close the game. Tried in fluxbox window manager where the game works, changed fullscreen to windowed fullscreen in the options and tried on gnome again, now the desktop isn't responding after launching the game and I had to ctrl-alt-f3 to reboot my machine.
