Graphics freezing #62

Open johesch opened 2 years ago

johesch commented 2 years ago

Hi, Been running Linux since 1990's and pulseeffects for at least a year now. I have several computers all running LMDE4 och now a cpouple also running LMDE5/Cinnamon. The one I have problem with is an intel 4570S; MSI MOBO Z97M-G43; 16Gb RAM; GTX750Ti Gr-card.

I've tested a lot. When I don't use pulseeffects it runs ok. And when I run pulseffects and at the same time interacts with the computer for ex. changes desktop and/or clicks at windows such as spotify and pulseffects it all of a sudden freeze the whole screen. Seems to me that the Gr.Card locks the screen. To get back I can kill xorg and then log in again and everything i ok. And this is repeatable. In LMDE4 it seems ok but LMDE5 its not ok.

I have a feeling that pulseffects is interfering in some way and then graphics freeze when user interacts. uname: Linux godt01 5.10.0-13-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.10.106-1 (2022-03-17) x86_64 GNU/Linux Browser: Brave Version 1.37.111 Chromium: 100.0.4896.79 (Officiell version) (64 bitar) spotify native: Spotify version 1.1.72.439.gc253025e, Copyright (c) 2021, Spotify Ltd

What you describe sounds more like the graphical toolkit GTK3 having problems with your graphic stack.

Try to get some logs so we can have a better idea of what is going on G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=pulseeffects flatpak run com.github.wwmm.pulseeffects. Remeber to kill any pulseeffects instance before trying to get logs. Maybe something useful will be on them. But at first sight it seems that the problem is at a lower level.

Hi again, If I use spotify webbrowser in Brave it all seems ok!? No frozen graphics then? Even when interacting I will get back on the flatpack logs. I'm new to flatpak but I've run unix/linux for 40 years
