[Bug 1830936] Re: Wayland freeze 18.04 using VLC
Thanks for the reply. Earlier, taking suggestions from the community I used the default video player and mpv video player which I downloaded from the store app in 18.04. Both work fine with the same files without any freeze. I think it crashes only with the VLC. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1830936 Title: Wayland freeze 18.04 using VLC To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1830936/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Thanks. Unfortunately those crash files don't appear to be related to this bug. That's not completely surprising if the "freeze" isn't caused by a crash. Next, please get a second computer and ssh into the freezing one (you may need to install 'openssh-server' on the freezing one first). Then reproduce the freeze and while it is frozen, from ssh run: killall -ABRT gnome-shell Wait a minute or two and that should produce a new crash file. Then follow the instructions in comment #2 again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1830936 Title: Wayland freeze 18.04 using VLC To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1830936/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I somehow messed up the command you gave. I was in Wayland and VLC crashed just now. I am attaching var/crash files. There was only 2 of them.

Also... 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. ** Package changed: wayland (Ubuntu) => gnome-shell (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Tags added: bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1830936 Title: Wayland freeze 18.04 using VLC To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1830936/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
