Bug#675345: [gnome-shell] gnome shell freezes

Package: gnome-shell
Version: 3.2.2.1-4+b1

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

I have exactly the same problem, it freezes most of the times when after
clicking on a LibreOffice window (Writer and Calc, I don't use the other
applications) or, less frequently, with Thunderbird.

This renders LibreOffice unusable, if I open a file and I work on it
chences are gnome shell will freeze within minutes.

As other users, if I switch to a different console (ctrl+alt+f1) and
kill gnome-shell with kill -9 I can resume working normally.

Also, when gnome shell is frozen, the mouse and keyboard events seem to
be processed but the display is not refreshed. In example the cursor
shape changes if I hover a text field. If I click on a Chromium tab, it
seems to do nothing but after restarting gnome shell I can see that it
switched to the selected tab.

This is extremely annoying and it renders gnome shell unusable for users
with little experience with Linux.

I'm using a HP ProBook 4510s.

I attach my xorg log and xsession errors log.

Regards,

Paolo
