This just happened again, with the same HW config. When this happens, I have zombie processes (was testing ssh-agent) related to gnome-session, not sure if this will be the cause.

This happened twice today for me, one is after a suspend, one is just a screen lock. Not sure what is the trigger yet. Syndrome: On the login screen after typing the correct password, you will see a small circle keep spinning and that's it. I need to restart my computer to get it back to normal. In the syslog this error message looks fishy: Aug 8 10:44:57 Leggiero gnome-shell[2118]: g_array_unref: assertion 'array' failed This is part of the syslog fetching from a VT after a GUI unlock attempt (session 24 is the desktop login attempt): Aug 8 10:44:42 Leggiero systemd[1]: Started Session 24 of user sam.
