gnome-shell[20126]: JS ERROR: TypeError: workAreaBox.get_origin is not a function
_computeWorkspacesBoxForState@/home/elijah/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/wsmatrix@martin.zurowietz>
vfunc_allocate@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/overviewControls.js:199:29
I see that that function is still being called here https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/blob/42.4/js/ui/overviewControls.js#L73-77, in 42.4. But... the latest commit is titled:
Allocation runs every frame during the overview animations, so we want to do as little work there as possible. Cache the work area box computation.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/commit/dc933779681fc630ee2baf87fbbc72d162d68ec6
So seems likely this commit and the caching is causing this error.
Oh, I see now, it was changed from workAreaBox
to a quasi-private name of this._workAreaBox
.

Please try #237 and report if it fixes the issue. As a workaround, you can disable this extension in the overview.
Cool, I did a:
cd ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/wsmatrix@martin.zurowietz.de
git fetch --all
git checkout g42.4-fix
Then enabled the extension in Extensions and it is working! Gonna reboot next after I get done with this meeting.
Reboot works, thank you!
I run Manjaro and can also report that this fixes the same issue for me. Thanks @ElijahLynn for reporting this so promptly, and @mzur for being so responsive.
Just updated to Gnome 42.4 yesterday and it broke login. I get a system menu bar at top, but grey below that with the unability to do anything. To fix this, I had to manually power cycle with the power button, then choose Gnome Classic on X11 at the GDM login screen, which somehow disabled all the Gnome Extensions, then I logged out and logged back in with a non-classic X11/XOrg session with the extensions still disabled and login worked again.

I finally figured out it was this extension causing the login hang and was able to disable it and carry-on. If I find logs I will post them.
