Any luck with the dump I pasted below? The other bad news is that I had that same problem where the screen is off, I turn it back on, I see my mouse cursor and the background, but all the windows are gone. I restarted E, and every single chrome window (I had many) got moved around between desktops, locations, whatever. Took me about 5mn to put everything back in its place. In other words, it's no better than the older E for me.
Other thing is that newer E seems to change my DPI, unless some other package got upgraded at the same time. cat ~/.Xresources Xft.dpi: 110 I had 100 with the old E, the gtk fonts were just the right size. Now, I need to set 110 for the fonts in chrome tabs or gthumb, to be readable (they were too small). Did that randomly happen at the same time?
