I think I might have misinterpreted that table. gnome-shell was only
using 156348416 bytes (156MB) of RAM. Other processes like 'java',
'kdevelop', 'VirtualBoxVM' and lots of Firefox tabs seem to be the
reason the machine ran out of memory.
So overall it sounds like gnome-shell probably just crashed, not being
able to cope with memory allocation failure somewhere. As such, we
should treat this as a regular crash so please follow these steps:
1. Run these commands:
journalctl -b0 > journal.txt
journalctl -b-1 > prevjournal.txt
and attach the resulting text files here.
2. 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.
3. If step 2 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.
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.
