This bug is a catch-all bug. If Xwayland crashes for any reason it will trigger gnome-shell death either in this bug or as bug 1556601.
While we appreciate everyone's efforts in diagnosing problems, in this particular case the issue is already understood and doesn't need much more comment. We can and will try to reduce the number of Xwayland crashes triggering this, which should be dealt as separate bugs. And separately, ideally, mutter/gnome-shell should not commit suicide when Xwayland crashes. The Gnome guys are already aware of this problem and say they would like to break this dependency in a future version of mutter/gnome-shell. That way even if Xwayland does crash it won't bring gnome-shell down with it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1505409 Title: gnome-shell crashed with SIGTRAP in x_io_error() from _XIOError() from _XEventsQueued() from XPending() from gdk_check_xpending() ["Connection to xwayland lost"] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-shell/+bug/1505409/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
