Chrome Window Occasionally Freezes on Regolith with Sway #15

Closed rmasad closed 1 month ago

rmasad commented 4 months ago

Sway Version: 1.8

Description: I am experiencing an issue where a Chrome window sporadically freezes while I'm using the Regolith Linux desktop environment, which is built on top of Sway. This problem occurs without a clear pattern, but it tends to happen after prolonged use of Chrome. When the freeze occurs, the Chrome window becomes unresponsive to both keyboard and mouse input, although other applications and system functions seem to operate normally.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Start the system and log into the Regolith desktop environment.
  2. Open Chrome and navigate to various websites.
  3. Continue normal use of Chrome, including opening new tabs, watching videos, etc.
  4. After an unspecified amount of time, one of the Chrome window remains frozen on the image it reproduces. You can see that when changing tabs the title of the window changes but you do not see those changes reflected graphically.

This is solved with sway 1.9.
