The plasmashell process is regularly crashing out of nowhere since I upgraded from FC21 to FC24. There is one improvement though since the latest package upgrades, now it restarts automatically, before I had to restart it manually to recover the menu bar at the bottom of the screen.
From retrace, the backtrace ends up in intel driver code: brw_workaround_depthstencil_alignment brw_clear Reassigning to intel driver You could consider using the intel modesetting driver instead (easiest way to try that is to simply remove xorg-x11-drv-intel and reboot)
I've seen that the intel driver is causing troubles on a lot of distros. Do you know if theses issues are being worked on ? I know people on Ubuntu who have a garbled screen because of this driver so I can consider myself lucky here...
As far as I know, most ongoing work is involved in the intel modesetting driver, which is why I suggested you try it.
Thanks, I'll do that !
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 It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 Fedora 24 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. 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.
