Bug#995714: gnome-shell freezes with error

[Tobias Köck]

Hello,

unfortunately the same problem still occurs

tron-nb gnome-shell[4951]: pushModal: invocation of begin_modal failed

I reinstalled the system with Debian 11.

It seems to be mainly occurring when I use the Debian included 
Firefox-ESR and Thunderbird version. I installed different kernels with 
bullseye-backports but that didn't change the problems.

Greetings
Tobias
