It's interesting the upgrade suggestion because I have been getting this issue lately-several times-on f25. I have tried several things, this being the latest: Kill -9 -1 Don't run this as root though.
P.s. in retrospect I'd try using sigterm on the first try; kill -15 -1

Killing gnome-shell will not necessarily free the machine up and make the GUI work as it is a significant component of the desktop
It won't. If you unceremoniously kill off gnome-shell, the desktop no longer works at all.
Use top to find the process number of gnome-shell.
kill -1 <pid of gnome-shell>
That will restart it without killing anything actually running. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@lists.fedoraproject.org
