Is this reproducible by anyone?
1. open a single gnome-terminal
2. log in as root via "su -"
3. run gedit
4. try to open gedit's Preferences via the application specific menu
displayed on the top panel (does it open? here, it doesn't)
5. try to trigger the "Activities" hotspot with the mouse
What happens? Here the desktop freezes completely. One can still move
the mouse, but that's all. Killing gedit and gnome-terminal doesn't
achieve anything. If killing more processes, eventually the "Oh no..."
screen appears, but upon trying to log back in at GDM, the desktop
doesn't load.
I can reproduce this bug.
On my Fedora 19 it doesn't open the application specific menu of gedit,
but gnome doesn't freeze.
On my Fedora 20 it doesn't open the application specific menu and the
gnome desktop freezes completely. I can still move the mouse too.
Among the more than 700 gnome-shell bugs in Fedora bugzilla, I've found
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/956306
which exists since 2013-04-24 and is for Fedora 18. Since it has not been
responded to by a maintainer, what would be the normal procedure? To open
a new ticket for Fedora 20?
Gedit edit>preferences comes up under KDE or Xfce.
Under Gnome the preferences option does not appear.
Right clicking on the top of the gedit window under Gnome
started heavy disk activity that lasts for some time. I tried
that a few times and eventually had to use the hardware reset.
Isn't a new Gnome about to come out? See if the next
Gnome fixes the problem by itself.
In the meantime why not meet the 4.7G limit by leaving Gome
and KDE off the DVD install disk? Let them run Xfce or MATE
and download Gnome or KDE if they wish.
