Well for the short bit that I've been using the system after disabling all the extensions through the Extensions app, I have not experienced any freeze. I will report back after the end of the day if I see any more freezes though.
Interestingly, after disabling all Extensions, I have no more dock unless I press the "super" button in which case it momentarily appears on the left, is this intended? I guess I seem to remember "stock gnome" had a dock that was permanently on the screen... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1912246 Title: gnome-shell freezes randomly after upgrading to groovy Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I recently upgrading from Focal to Groovy, and use proprietary NVIDIA drivers with X11 with otherwise standard GNOME, but some extensions installed.
