Steps 3-5 look exactly how a crash in a session would look like, also assuming you're using the default gtk LightDM greeter.
But these logs look like X died took everything with it. Can you get a stack trace from coredumpctl or maybe something from the Xorg logs?

correct
Can you get a stack trace from coredumpctl
i try to get one
or maybe something from the Xorg logs?

I tried to enable core dumps, but the documentation is not clear how to do. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/60088
I don't get coredumps after applying the changes and rebooting.
But when locked, the system don't reacts on keaboard input, mouse or touchpad interaction. Only clicking the power button let the device shut down.
Suspending still let the session crash. But no core dump.

Have you tried switching to a tty with the shortcut?
Also, when having issues with locking and suspending, it could be two independent issues so I'd need to know
Edit: saw the video, (felt the frustration :smile:) and going with debugging locking specifically where it's locked with the shortcut and no keyboard input needed to wake (by itself)
That's a multi-monitor setup if I'm not mistaken?
That's a multi-monitor setup if I'm not mistaken?
yes. it's a thinkpad on a docking station with 2 external displays.
this strange thinkpad has also a dedicated radeon GPU, but it has worse performance than the integrated intel gpu when open source drivers are used, so it's ok it is not used. but that might also cause trouble...

Have you tried switching to a tty with the shortcut?
that works. then i can also go back and login again, to a new session.
how exactly a session is locked
shortcut or menu in upper right
how it was suspended
menu
how it's unlocked
only way is to go to a tty and back to tty 7, then you can login
how you resumed
when hit ENTER, the login screen appears. again login 3 times to new session. moving and clicking mouse does nothing
:sparkles: I can reproduce steps 3-5 with a multi-monitor setup.
I tested that with a laptop with Intel UHD Graphics 620
. Strangely enough though, if you use the pantheon greeter you cannot unlock a session with multi-monitors. Which in a way prevents the session from being killed altogether.
I have a Intel Corporation HD Graphics 620 (rev 02)
too.
I can confirm that unlock and resume works without external displays.
When trying to unlock, the display still remains dark. I have to go to a tty and back to tty 7, multiple times.
Same when bootet without external displays.
Now i saw the "This session is locked" when i go back to tty 7, some seconds later i get the login screen.

That sounds exactly like https://github.com/the-cavalry/light-locker/issues/138 so an issue with light-locker (probably a regression from GNOME 3.30?).
Edit: sounds like light-locker can't switch back to the greeter properly
so an issue with light-locker (probably a regression from GNOME 3.30?).
in gnome on NixOS 18.09 i had no issues with locking (with GDM! with lightdm locking probably still don't work). but with Xfce earlier, that's why i switched to gnome... https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/38493 (Xfce uses xflock4)
That sounds exactly like the-cavalry/light-locker#138
yes, except
I get a message that the screen is locked and I get redirected to unlock in a few seconds but that never happens
i got the login screen in about 2 seconds
I can now say that there are no core dumps.
Did you have some success with debugging? Can i help in some way?
I'm looking for time to debug, as it's going to be interesting and involved. From there I'm suspecting that we'll need the co-operation of upstream to actually fix the issue.
Next step is to get a backtrace with gdb of the gnome-session-binary --session=pantheon
process.
I tried Obtaining a stack and JS trace using GDB for an already running gnome-shell
sudo gdb -p $(pgrep -U $USER gnome-session) -batch -ex "set logging on" -ex continue -ex "bt full" -ex "call gjs_dumpstack()" -ex quit
but i only got:

I'm using my Thinkpad X230 with 1 external display connected via VGA right now and don't have this problem.
So the cause might be the other hardware (it has hybrid graphics) or 2 displays (using docking station.)
I will try to test with a desktop computer and more than 1 display.
@davidak Pantheon has made some moves to use latest mutter, ref https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/73906.
I tried this out with https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/73906, and I can't reproduce this issue anymore. But switchboard-plug-display needs to be updated for latest mutter.
Great. I'm currently in homeoffice and don't have a docking station or multiple monitors here, so i will not be able to test it for some time...
But i put it on the list of tasks to do at the office.

Hello, I'm a bot and I thank you in the name of the community for opening this issue.
To help our human contributors focus on the most-relevant reports, I check up on old issues to see if they're still relevant. This issue has had no activity for 180 days, and so I marked it as stale, but you can rest assured it will never be closed by a non-human.
The community would appreciate your effort in checking if the issue is still valid. If it isn't, please close it.
If the issue persists, and you'd like to remove the stale label, you simply need to leave a comment. Your comment can be as simple as "still important to me". If you'd like it to get more attention, you can ask for help by searching for maintainers and people that previously touched related code and @ mention them in a comment. You can use Git blame or GitHub's web interface on the relevant files to find them.
Lastly, you can always ask for help at our Discourse Forum or at #nixos' IRC channel.
I don't see this anymore. Closing
