F20 gnome inactivity causes mouse/kbd unresponsiveness, must restart gnome-shell

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I've two systems running F20 + updates-testing, a T400 laptop and a desktop PC. PC was upgraded with yum from F18, laptop was a fresh install. Both experience the same problems, at least for roughly two weeks now, maybe longer (not sure when this started, maybe even from the install in Dec/Jan). The problems are much more severe on the laptop, though (laptop is on docking station and on power all the time).

After inactivity timeout, you need to swipe the screen or use keyboard to reactivate it (I've disabled screen locking). The problem that often occurs is that mouse movement works, but clicking doesn't do anything. Similarly keyboard is unresponsibe. The clock has been frozen to the inactivity time.

The workaround is to use CTRL-ALT-F2, log on there and do 'killall -HUP gnome-shell'. Then you can resume the session (after entering the password etc.). Sometimes restarting doesn't work.

I've been unable to find similar reports on F20 but maybe I don't know what to look for. On F18 I found something remotely familiar (but this occurs pre-locking and there are no errors): https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=872118

I see no strange messages in messages, Xorg.0.log or gdm logs.
Any ideas? Where to start digging?
