 Posted: Sat Sep 16, 2023 11:31 pm Post subject: gnome-shell crashing when moving icons on my dock |
 |
|
I am running gnome-shell-44.3 on x11 with no extensions enabled and when I try to move icons on the gnome dock it restarts my gnome shell. When moving the icon the mouse cursor changes from being an arrow to an X, after that it just crashes/restarts the whole gnome shell and the icon does not move. Not sure how to troubleshoot it.
gnome-shell --version
GNOME Shell 44.3
journalctl --user -b -p err
| Code: | Sep 18 04:21:52 gentoo gnome-shell[1348]: Received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadCursor (invalid Cursor parameter)'.
(Details: serial 244888 error_code 6 request_code 95 (core protocol) minor_code 0)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the MUTTER_SYNC environment
variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the meta_x_error() function.) |

it turns out that its my mouse cursor theme that i changed with gnome tweaks that is causing the gnome-shell to crash. It looks that it can't load any of the mouse cursors I have installed even tho they all work on a different distro.
Any idea if I am maybe missing any useflag or some dependency?

On a new installtion of gentoo, new home, I still experience this same bug in gnome. All cursor themes will not work. They display a white box, and if i try to move anything in the gnome-shell it will crash until i go back to the adwaita cursor theme.
Strange it has been more than 6 months and this bug is still here. I am stuck with the default gnome cursor theme for life it seems.
Anyone knows how i can troubleshoot this? |

I am also on a fresh install of Gentoo and still experiencing this. I do not have gnome-tweaks installed, and haven't made any changes to the theme other than setting dark mode. This bug makes it very difficult to work as gnome crashes at least a couple of times a day. This seems to only happen when switching windows by moving my cursor into the top left of the screen, but it does not always happen.

I have tried different versions of nvidia drivers with no success.
Any suggestions on fixing this or workarounds? |
