Public bug reported:
Gnome-shell crashes randomly and causes a black screen for about 1
second. It immediately recovers and one can continue the session without
logging in again. This occurs once daily, so it is not yet annoying.
dmesg shows, that the segfault is caused by the spidermonkey library:
