[BUG] Dragging and Dropping Files Causes Desktop to Freeze #399

Open jorge-menjivar opened 2 weeks ago

jorge-menjivar commented 2 weeks ago

Using Fedora 40 with kernel 6.9.4-200.fc40.x86_64.

I tried dragging and dropping a PNG image into a Google Doc in Chrome. First, I tried using the regular Gnome Files app, and it froze the whole system and had to restart. I tried a second time with the Cosmic Files app, and the same thing happened.

Update: Others (read below) are also experiencing a complete desktop freeze when dragging and dropping any file to any location, including within the same folder.

Came here to report the same bug. I'm also on Fedora 40 with kernel 6.9.4-200.fc40.x86_64

Drag-and-drop freezes the desktop in every situation for me. In both Cosmic Files and Gnome Files, dragging any file to any location (including a different location within the same folder) causes the desktop to freeze

@aekobear Thank you for adding to this. I have updated the title and the opening comment to reflect your findings.

Drakulix commented 2 weeks ago

Is this still an issue? I can't replicate it. Was Chrome running via Xwayland or wayland in that case?

jorge-menjivar commented 2 weeks ago

@Drakulix

Yes, in chrome, I was using native wayland with the following flags: #ignore-gpu-blocklist : Enabled #ozone-platform-hint : Wayland

However, I am no longer able to replicate this. I have done these relevant changes since I posted this:

Note: This issue was only happening in Cosmic Epoch, it did not happen in either Gnome or KDE plasma, which I have also been using without issues.

This was still happening for me, so I did some more troubleshooting. When I tried opening cosmic-files via terminal, I noticed that on load it would display this error:

DRM kernel driver 'nvidia-drm' in use. NVK requires nouveau.

I did spend some time setting up proprietary nvidia drivers on this installation, so I tried purging them and rebooting. Sure enough, the freeze no longer happens.

That being said, I needed those drivers to play video games, so not a huge victory :shrug:

I'm going to try a fresh install with pop OS as my base tomorrow to see if I can get cosmic working with a dedicated GPU and without this freeze

I am also seeing this, but the bug is not happening anymore. I still have nvidia proprietary drivers. NVIDIA-SMI 550.90.07 Driver Version: 550.90.07 CUDA Version: 12.4

What I am thinking is that maybe you had pending installs that needed a reboot, or maybe a kernel update. I also updated my nvidia drivers, so that could have had an impact as well.
