MEGAsync causes intermittent freeze #428

Open danmou opened 4 years ago

danmou commented 4 years ago

I'm running Manjaro 19 with GNOME Shell 3.36. After upgrading the official AppIndicator/KStatusNotifierItem plugin from v32 to v33 I get a full UI freeze regularly every ~10s lasting ~2s. During the freeze no mouse or keyboard input is registered. I found out the problem only occurs when MEGAsync is running. Any idea why this is happening?

Corresponding issue with gnome-shell-extension-appindicator

I want to upvote this, I have got the same problem: Solid freeze every 10s, one core spikes. Ubuntu 20.04

Same problem to me, on ubuntu 20.04

I was able to recreate this issue on Ubuntu 20.04 with Gnome 3.36.

I turned off every shell extension until I found that this caused it. I also closed and opened other programs with tray icons until I found that only MEGAsync is the culprit, other tray programs work fine. Furthermore, the issue is solved with Appindicators turned off, but MEGAsync is still running in the background. So somehow it must be a problem with that combo. Did not have this problem in Ubuntu 19.10 with Gnome 3.34.

How can I disable the tray indicator still leaving MEGAsync at work?

The fix was found in https://github.com/ubuntu/gnome-shell-extension-appindicator/issues/226, it has yet to be implemented.

Is it possible to remove Megasync while waiting for a solution? I installed megasync on ubuntu 22.04. It does not work and I cannot remove it. I also have issues with system updates. Here is my trying:

$ sudo apt remove megasync Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies: linux-modules-5.15.0-47-generic : Depends: linux-image-5.15.0-47-generic but it is not going to be installed or linux-image-unsigned-5.15.0-47-generic but it is not going to be installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

@htoptas Is that related to this issue? Your problem sounds like an issue with package management on Ubuntu, you might want to check the Ubuntu forums or somewhete else.

You may be right, I'm trying to find similar situations to get help. I tried to remove other packages and get similar warnings. I'll find and read some. Thanks
