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).
2 physically different computers showing same problem. using "updates-testing".
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.
"problem that often occurs" are there other problems? does this problem not always happen? clock freezing means that a routine has locked up or is possibly holding off screen refresh.
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.
"use CTRL-ALT-F2", then keyboard is not _completely_ unresponsive.
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?
"swag" time. is there anything special that you have on both systems that relates to keyboard and/or mouse? ie, being that i see you are from "fi" land, i wonder if by chance you are using 'multi language' on your systems. if so, can/have you create another user as "en" only to see if problem occurs? have you tired/considered setting up one of the systems without using "updates-testing"? i would suggest that if you are wanting to use "updates-testing", at least have a partition with non testing, and if you have room, do such on t400. or just not run "testing" on t400. -- peace out. in a world with out fences, who needs gates. tc.hago. g . -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
