GNOME 3 Freezing

[Anthony Vanover]

For some reason, Fedora freezes after an unspecified amount of time. I'm
able to move the mouse but everything else is unresponsive. So I just
switch to console <CTRL>+<ALT>+<F2> and use "killall -s HUP
gnome-shell"
in root shell (#). Haven't tested any of the other Desktop managers but
I'm pretty sure this is the only one.

How many monitors are you using?

It's probably not this - because you can get at the shell - but I notice sometimes my
lock screen doesn't display the password popup on a monitor ( or more accurately
displays it on a monitor it is not displaying anything on). When I type my password it
unlocks and both screens then display as normal.

Please file bugs. I haven't come across these situations while using
gnome3. The screen freeze does happen if you're using a 64bit kernel and
making high i/o related operations. Its a kernel bug, fixed in 3.2
