Hi,

I have recently updated the system. After the update when I log in to the desktop environment and open some app
the window does not appear. When I click on gnome menu button I can see the app icon and "x" button to close it.

I am analyzing the log before and after update. The first thing that I noticed is that I see such error:
Code:

org.gnome.Shell.desktop[2461]: XIO:  fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0"
org.gnome.Shell.desktop[2461]:       after 3517 requests (3517 known processed) with 3 events remaining.


I think it might me somehow related.

I see some other errors that did not exist in the log before the update, eg.:
Code:

 systemd-coredump[7683]: Process 7678 (tracker-extract) of user 1000 terminated abnormally with signal 31/SYS, processing...


I also get a lot errors like this:
Code:

/usr/libexec/gdm-x-session[4281]: (II) systemd-logind: got pause for 13:74


I am trying to figure out which of those could be a root cause. Maybe you will have some other suggestions, or maybe you came across similar issue in the past.

Cheers

OP: what was changed by the system update? What kernel version are you using? What are the versions of the non-working programs / libraries? We don't know if you are on stable or testing, nor exactly when you synced for the update, so it is hard to determine what versions you are using.

I had the same problem too and solved it by compiling just mutter with wayland. I read the suggestion at bug 937632 https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=937632
