The problem is related to suspend-to-ram. It occurs after the laptop wakes up and the problem is 100% reproducible. Other symptoms are: Network is down and the NetworkManager says all network interfaces are unmanaged. I cannot change to root. The command su shows no reaction. Changing to another terminal (TTY2...) only gives an empty black screen without prompt. reporter: libreport-2.1.7 backtrace_rating: 4 cmdline: /usr/bin/gnome-shell crash_function: magazine_chain_pop_head executable: /usr/bin/gnome-shell kernel: 3.11.1-200.fc19.i686.PAE package: gnome-shell-3.8.4-2.fc19 reason: Process /usr/bin/gnome-shell was killed by signal 11 (SIGSEGV) runlevel: N 5 type: CCpp uid: 1000
The bug allows to bypass the screen lock without password. In my case the bug occurs every time I used suspend-to-ram. The lock screen is unresponsive and after a while it continues straight to the running gnome session without password. The gnome session is buggy and not everything works but it allows access of data and programmes.
Installed PostInstaller on 14/10 in order to add Netflix-Desktop, XBMC and a few other modules. Shortly afterwards, Fedora began crashing whenever I tried to use the search box, and now it crashes when using the Activities tab. yum removed PostInstaller hoping it was a faulty extension, but the issue persists. reporter: libreport-2.1.8 backtrace_rating: 4 cmdline: /usr/bin/gnome-shell crash_function: magazine_chain_pop_head executable: /usr/bin/gnome-shell kernel: 3.11.3-201.fc19.x86_64 package: gnome-shell-3.8.4-2.fc19 reason: Process /usr/bin/gnome-shell was killed by signal 11 (SIGSEGV) runlevel: N 5 type: CCpp uid: 1000

Once I downgraded back to gtk3-3.8.4-1.fc19.x86_64, the crashes stop.
After upgrading my system (via "Software Upgrade") and after rebooting, gnome is unusable as moments after logging in gnome-shell crashes. Gnome-shell worked fine before the upgrade. reporter: libreport-2.1.8 backtrace_rating: 4 cmdline: gnome-shell --sm-client-id 10a6cad251b330f5a134081720292197100000024190000 crash_function: magazine_chain_pop_head executable: /usr/bin/gnome-shell kernel: 3.11.4-201.fc19.x86_64 package: gnome-shell-3.8.4-2.fc19 reason: Process /usr/bin/gnome-shell was killed by signal 11 (SIGSEGV) runlevel: N 5 type: CCpp uid: 1000
I should add that for me I don't even need to go to "Activities": gnome shell always crashes a few seconds after login, even if I do nothing. But downgrading gtk3 as mentioned above has fixed the issue for now. Thanks starfall.
Opened a new gtk3 bug for this - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1020073
can severity of this be marked "high"? (I cannot change severity, AFAIK.) For me, the shell crashes consistently when trying to do [Windows-Key] and typing a command to run. Without that capability, the shell is...ahem... not very useful. Also, I can confirm rolling back gtk3-3.8.4 is a work-around. (So I guess this is really a gtk3 bug that gnome-shell happens to trigger.)
just clicked on the gnome applications menu (show all) reporter: libreport-2.1.8 backtrace_rating: 4 cmdline: /usr/bin/gnome-shell crash_function: magazine_chain_pop_head executable: /usr/bin/gnome-shell kernel: 3.11.4-201.fc19.x86_64 package: gnome-shell-3.8.4-2.fc19 reason: Process /usr/bin/gnome-shell was killed by signal 11 (SIGSEGV) runlevel: N 3 type: CCpp uid: 1000
gnome-shell crashes for me are fixed with the current update gtk3-3.8.6-1.fc19.x86_64
I went to Gnome Shell Overview mode and started typing "virtual". In the middle (I don't know exactly which character), gnome shell crashes. It happens always, and is probably caused by some entries it tries to show. reporter: libreport-2.1.8 abrt_installed_version: abrt-2.1.8-1.fc19.x86_64 backtrace_rating: 4 cmdline: /usr/bin/gnome-shell crash_function: magazine_chain_pop_head executable: /usr/bin/gnome-shell kernel: 3.11.4-201.fc19.x86_64 libreport_version: libreport-2.1.8-1.fc19.x86_64 package: gnome-shell-3.8.4-2.fc19 reason: Process /usr/bin/gnome-shell was killed by signal 11 (SIGSEGV) runlevel: N 5 satyr_version: satyr-0.10-1.fc19.x86_64 type: CCpp uid: 1000
