I don't know if it is exactly the same issue but I have been experimenting segfaults since I upgraded to 17.04. It often happens when I open the overview mode and start typing to search for an application (I am not sure it occurs if I don't type anything). Lastly it didn't restart automatically so I have to go to a TTY to restart it.

I am not using ZFS but EXT4, and ecryptfs for my home directory. Happens in dual screen but also with only an HDMI-connected TV. I usually don't use the laptop screen much so I'm not sure if it happens also in that case. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1580605 Title: gnome-shell crashes often To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1580605/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
