Yeah, I'm not saying that's wrong. It's just the only explanation I can think of because your gnome-shell seems to be stuck in gvfs code querying the (encrypted) home directory. If correct then that's just a bug.
Unfortunately I haven't yet found any other reports of such a hang, but that also would be because we don't get automated hang reports, only automated crash reports. So this might be a common problem and we'd never know. Before going so far as to ask you to test with a non-encrypted directory we need to check the most common cause of bugs first. That is third- party extensions. Please disable all your extensions and let us know if the problem then goes away... b'org.gnome.shell' b'enabled-extensions' b"['openweather- extens...@jenslody.de', 'move_cl...@jonathan.bluemosh.com', 'multi- volume@tigersoldier', 'advancedvolumemi...@harry.karvonen.gmail.com', 'gnote_integrat...@awamper.gmail.com', 'mediapla...@patapon.info', 'system-moni...@paradoxxx.zero.gmail.com', 'ubuntu-d...@ubuntu.com', 'AdvancedVolumeMixer_harry.karvonen.gmail.com', 'mconnect_andyholmes.github.io', 'mediaplayer_patapon.info', 'openweather-extension_jenslody.de', 'drive-menu_gnome-shell- extensions.gcampax.github.com', 'ubuntu-dock_ubuntu.com', 'system- monitor_paradoxxx.zero.gmail.com', 'dock-settings@lagrangian', 'dash-to- dock_micxgx.gmail.com', 'pulseaudio-equali...@s8dragon.vn', 'cariboubloc...@git.keringar.xyz', 'move_cl...@rmy.pobox.com', 'drive- m...@gnome-shell-extensions.gcampax.github.com', 'suspend- button@laserb', 'activities-config@nls1729', 'ubuntu- appindicat...@ubuntu.com', 'gsconn...@andyholmes.github.io', 'extension- reloader@nls1729']" Start by disabling drive-related extensions like the drive-menu ones... -- 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/1781647 Title: gnome-shell crashed with SIGABRT in __GI___poll() from g_main_context_poll() from g_main_context_iterate() from g_main_loop_run() from g_dbus_connection_send_message_with_reply_sync() from g_dbus_connection_call_sync_internal() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1781647/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
