I believe I'm plagued by the same bug (also followed bug 1717170, and posted on bugzilla). However, now I don't get a full crash, but a session kick-out. This issue happens on two separate Intel NUC setups, both connected to a 4K TV with a displayport->hdmi2.0 -adapter (the other one from Club3D, the other a built in adapter in Intel Skull Canyon NUC.
But all in all, this is now forcing me to suspend my computers before switching off the displays, otherwise my entire desktop is lost. I can't understand how this is not more common, however. An extremely annoying issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1724557 Title: gnome-shell crashed with SIGSEGV in meta_logical_monitor_get_scale() Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hi all, Originally I was reporting bug 1717170, about session crash after monitor disconnect/switch-off/input change on desktop PC and the bug was fixed according to bug tracker.
