Description jdevaraj01 2025-10-22 02:44:47 UTC

When I am in the files app and I drag a file from files to android studio, the display manager crashes. It just goes onto the login screen and closes all applications. This also happens in firefox when I drag and drop a tab onto the desktop. The display manager crashes. Also, I lose my extensions such as gnome vitals. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Take a file in finder.
2.Drag it into the android studio file list. 
3.
Actual Results:
The display manager crashes.

Expected Results:
The file will end up in android studio.

Wayland is just a protocol specification in XML and the low-level C library that deals with the protocol.

This issue here is a bug not with the protocol itself but with either your compositor or desktop environment's implementation of the Wayland protocol and surrounding functionality.

In other words, that's a GNOME issue, not Wayland, moving to mutter instead.

Bug reports for this component on Red Hat Bugzilla are not actively monitored. Please consider reporting your issue directly to GNOME at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/ to improve the chances that your issue will be resolved. This issue should only be kept open if it:

1. Relates to Fedora packaging or integration with other Fedora components
2. Is required for Fedora release processes, such as blocker bugs and freeze exceptions

If this issue isn't needed for either of these two reasons, please:

 * create an issue with GNOME
 * add a link to the GNOME issue here
 * close this issue as CLOSED/UPSTREAM

Thank you!
