I occasionally see gnome-shell spinning at 100% upon login - the desktop visually starts, but is unresponsive. I've not had gnome-shell go into a spin once everything is up-and-running. strace shows that it is waiting on some futex but I haven't figured out the root cause yet. > I also sometimes see in this prompt view a message indicating that the core > temperature > has exceeded threshold. > I installed GKrellM to watch the temperatures and they seem quite reasonable > (the graphic > card, at the highest temperature is currently displaying 76°C). > Where does Gnome 3 report these kind of problems (I have seen no error > meesage in the > ~/.xsession-errors file) ? This is a separate issue. Things like temp reading come from sensors / lm-sensors. I'd wonder if these even work on a Mac. The sensors code can be pretty wildly inaccurate depending upon the sanity of the hardware; there is lots of vendor-specific-implementation stuff involved in reading the sensor values. [although it seems to work well on my Toshiba DV7-3085DX]. _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list gnome-shell-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
