Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It sounds like some part of the system has crashed. To help us find the cause of the crash please follow these steps:
1. Look in /var/crash for crash files and if found run: ubuntu-bug YOURFILE.crash Then tell us the ID of the newly-created bug. 2. If step 1 failed then look at https://errors.ubuntu.com/user/ID where ID is the content of file /var/lib/whoopsie/whoopsie-id on the machine. Do you find any links to recent problems on that page? If so then please send the links to us. 3. If step 2 also failed then apply the workaround from bug 994921, reboot, reproduce the crash, and retry step 1. Please take care to avoid attaching .crash files to bugs as we are unable to process them as file attachments. It would also be a security risk for yourself. ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- 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/1924679 Title: Intel Nuc install. Icons go blank randomly, nothing opens. Need to remove power to reboot. Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hi Guys, I've installed Ubuntu on my Intel Nuc, and have had issues with the OS randomly freezing. Usually the icons go blank, apps close, and I'm unable to open any applications. The only way to get the system back is to take the power out of the NUC and put it back in to form a reboot.
