Public bug reported: Periodically, gnome shell locks up. The cursor stays as the text selection cursor, no matter what I do, and gnome-shell will refuse to focus windows. This may be complicated by the fact that I'm using focus follows mouse.
In any case, I was running gnome shell in a terminal at the time (because this is the 2nd time that this happened) and I got some possibly relevant output, so I'm opening a bug. Please let me know if you would like more info and I will try to get more data when this happens again. It is not reproducible on command.

Window manager warning: Got a request to focus the no_focus_window with a timestamp of 0. This shouldn't happen! I haven't an idea of on what line the lock up happened. The only thing I know is that it happened sometime before the xchat-indicator message. LMK if there is anything additional you would like to do to debug this. ** Affects: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/903447 Title: gnome-shell locks up and refuses to give windows focus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/903447/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
