Hello,

I'm sorry you're experiencing such issues. Please, can you try updating your "mesa-" packages using the repository at [1] and report back with information if that helped or not?

The crash is coming from the driver, reassigning to it.

Comment 18 Don Swaner 2016-12-14 16:06:21 UTC
Mostly mediawriter has been consistently hanging my system when attempting to restore a usb stick, with the occasional abort.  In F25, when video acceleration was turned off, mediawriter performed correctly, and "restored" a usb stick which had a bootable iso on it.

Similar problem has been detected:

When I select the image to burn (fedora workstation for instance, or also selecting kde spin), the download seems to start, but after a little bit of time, mediawriter crashes.

Comment 22 rugk 2017-06-06 11:37:05 UTC
Anyone concerned to fix this?

In an upstream issue (https://github.com/MartinBriza/MediaWriter/issues/90) the author said, this is a driver issue of the nouveau driver.
It's especially bad as it happened to me exactly at the most important point where the program is used. And in my case it froze the *whole system*! That's the worst UX you can get. I would have expected it to be better for such an important, official Fedora tool! You cannot share Fedora with anyone if you cannot create an installation image!

Comment 24 Fedora End Of Life 2017-11-16 14:59:51 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '25'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 25 Fedora End Of Life 2017-12-12 10:14:41 UTC
Fedora 25 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-12-12. Fedora 25 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
