Description of problem: Random crashes of the display server. Blank screen. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-shell-41.8.1-1.fc35.x86_64 mutter-41.8-1.fc35.x86_64 How reproducible: Random. A few times per day. Seems to be triggered by user activity. Additional info: This started happening about a day ago after installing new versions of mutter and gnome-shell. This message shows up in journalctl, followed by session shutdown: The program 'gnome-shell' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 12479 error_code 3 request_code 22 (core protocol) minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) This problem was reported by someone else on bodhi too: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-0ce968f910
I see the same behavior after that update. So far I was able to reproduce it only on Wayland session. It was crashing very often but I was not able to identify any pattern. Switched temporarily to X-session. Please fix it.
The same here. Happens very often (hardly any session longer than 5-10 minutes). Here it can be provoked well in that one marks text in an X11 application (e.g. gitk) and inserts with the middle mouse button in a Tilix window.
Can you put GDK_SYNCHRONIZE=1 in /etc/environment, reboot, reproduce the crash, and attach a backtrace (using coredumpctl).
It may be related to copy/paste, I was working actively with text when it was happening. But I blamed the video playing in Firefox.
- I have updated `/etc/environment`: ``` $ cat /etc/environment GDK_SYNCHRONIZE=1 ``` - Restarted computer. - Logged into Wayland Gnome session - copied from Firefox - pasted copied into VS Code - CRASH!!!

I'm having the same issues and it seems to have to do with text selection in some way. I can reliably reproduce it with Chrome on Gnome-Wayland with the following steps: 1. Restart computer 2. Log into Gnome-Wayland 3. Open Chrome 4. Double click into the address bar so that part of the URL text is selected 5. Screen goes black On Gnome-Xorg I can reproduce this with Chrome and Firefox but instead of a black screen gnome-shell restarts. I also added GDK_SYNCHRONIZE=1 to /etc/environment but there is no dump in coredumpctl.

mutter-41.8-2 installed and so far I have been unable to reproduce the crash (10 minutes testing so far) Thanks (hoping not to jinx it) Dylan

I too have had no problems since installing the new package. Thank you very much!
I've experienced it too if a xwayland app running and do copy/paste or make a selection on gnome terminal. Fixed by using on mutter-41.8-2.fc35 (https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-4bfe306a05).
