Created attachment 1211231 [details] Corrupt desktop view, large number of notifications can be seen Description of problem: Temporary freeze of desktop is experienced on first login and subsequent screen unlocks. There is no clear errors in the logs. After 40 to 60 seconds, desktop responds. But If I clicked on the date to see pending notifications (or even move the mouse near there), entire desktop freezes and becomes unstable. In this case, it will not come back automatically. I switch to VT, come back again, try Alt+F2 and do shell restart using "r". Desktop may come back. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): GNOME Shell 3.20.4 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create many all day calendar entries/events in evolution for the day or longer period. 2. Set notification for them, so that all comes up together 3. All these notifications will come up in notification area 4. Move the mouse near date, or click on it. Actual results: Desktop freezes and/or becomes unstable/unusable. Expected results: I should be able to see the pending notifications/scroll through it and clear it Additional info: I am using nvidia-367.44 from rpmfusion-nonfree-updates X11 and gdm login is used. This observation could be due to too many notifications pending there. After deleting the culprit events from Evolution, issue did not recur.
I am not able to reproduce the original evolution calendar entry/entries that caused this issue. I tried creating few all day events, pasted it multiple times. Desktop is slowing down, but not freexing now. I also tried this loop, apart from slowness, desktop is not freezing now. for f in `seq 1 500`; do notify-send "test msg $f"; done
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '24'. 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 24 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.
Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.
