More symptoms: I can kill gnome-shell with "kill -KILL" from a ctrl-alt terminal. The GDM screen then appears as usual. Logging in again, however, seems to hang on a blank purple screen.
The GDM screen appears normal but moving the mouse over the top-right corner to activate the menu results in EXTREME lag. The menu is usable but doesn't update for dozens of seconds after clicking on it. Could this be a problem with XWayland? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1752145 Title: system freeze after full screen video viewing with Xorg on ultrawide monitor Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in mesa package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: 1. open a video (either youtube or totem) 2. put it in full screen. 3. wait Eventually (within minutes) the system will freeze in one of 2 ways. 1.
