I can confirm both the bug with CS:GO (and several other games that go non-responsive for a short while after starting) and that the fix works.
I installed the packages from the ppa and have tested with CS:GO and a couple of others I was experiencing the problem on (Dying Light and TF2 behave similarly) and the games start correctly now and do not block the UI or crash gnome-shell, though they still display the Force Quit dialog. I can do any further testing needed but this LGTM. -- 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/1848852 Title: Counter-Strike Global Offensive freezes in gnome-shell To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-shell/+bug/1848852/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
