Package: gnome-shell
Version: 3.4.2-7
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
- What led up to the situation?
-> Randomly but often the window manager and gnome-shell crashes (no black top
bar, no window decoration, keystrokes like alt+tab do not react). As far as I
recognized it happens only if I work with an external monitor (1600x1200
resolution, VGA), with the internal notebook screen (1024x768 resolution)
everything works fine.
- What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?
-> After a crash, from an open gnome-terminal I could run "gnome-shell" and
everything works fine again (until the next crash). On a second crash I had on
terminal the message "intel_do_flush_locked failed: Auf dem Gerät ist kein
Speicherplatz mehr verfügbar" (= No memory space left on device).
However, it cannot mean disk space, there are a few GB on each partition left.
The graphics hardware (Intel GMA 950 referred to spec sheet) identifies itself
via lspci as:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS,
943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML
Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
My first guess would be not enough memory on the graphic card - but the
notebook (btw. Lenovo x60s 1702-AA5) has 1.5 GB RAM and the specification say
that the graphic adapter may get up to 196 MB in this case.
It may be helpful to know that the problem of crashes occurs in dual-head-mode,
too, but never if I choose "gnome classic" during login.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. The problem is reproducable, so if you
need further information tell me how I can get them....
