[Bug 1729028] Re: gnome-shell crashes after period of inactivity

2017-11-06 Thread David Burke
Turning off the monitor is a VERY simple way to reproduce the issue. I was able to work around it by changing my sleep settings (super wasteful!) so that the monitor never goes off. I thought I tried this before...but it works now. I attempted to follow the generic crash report instructions. I got

I use font scaling. At one point I enabled fractional scaling but have since completely disabled it including disabling org.gnome.mutter .experimental-features. "unplugging external monitor" I only use one monitor and this is a desktop - but my 4k PB287 Asus monitor has perhaps the slowest turn on

[Bug 1729028] [NEW] gnome-shell crashes after period of inactivity

2017-10-31 Thread David Burke
Public bug reported: Gnome shell crashes reliably and only after a period of inactivity (15+ minutes). I have not seen it crash while using the desktop - even for hours at a time. I suspect it has something to do with locking the screen or turning off the monitor. However even after attempting to

2012-05-10 Thread David Burke
Public bug reported: In theory I should be able to set xdg-user-dirs DESKTOP=Documents/Desktop which happens to be how Windows stores it's desktop files. Then mount (I use pam_mount) Documents as a smb share. This works about half of the time, assumably a race condition between mounting the share

I tried both a Windows Server with NTFS and a Linux Samba server with ext4. Obviously ext4 allows it. I tried using smbmount and it worked to copy it this way. Just for the heck of it I tried making a file like this in windows. It doesn't allow it. It won't even allow you to type in : I then mad

Still present. Has anyone found a work around? This is a potential show stopper for a Linux deployment if users happen to need the password for anything important. Forcing all users to use unsafe (passwordless) storage would be an acceptable solution. Right now I'm working around it by going to EV
