Fly Pie Crashing Gnome Completely

BlackHawk185 opened this issue · comments

Lord I've done it again

Describe the Bug

Any attempt to use the dragging/gestures in Fly Pie causing Gnome-Shell to crash and become unresponsive, save tab switching, until restarted.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create a Menu
  2. Attempt to Use or Drag menu by of click and drag (I.E. Create a menu and attempt to delete by dragging causing an instant crash)

journalctl -f -o cat | grep -E 'flypie|' - Attempting to use this through TTY yields systemd-logind: got pause for 13:70

Hardware is a 2 in 1 Detachable Keyboard Tablet, Which as far as I know is running in PC Mode, with rotation locked. Keyboard is not attached during use.

## System
- OS: Solus x86_64
- Host: X16
- Kernel: 5.15.50-216.current
- CPU: Intel Celeron N4020 (Z) @ 2.800GHZ
- GPU: Intel GeminiLake [UHD Graphics 600]
- Fly Pie 3 installed by Gnome Shell Extension
- GNOME Shell version: 42.3.1

While this is apparently an issue with Gnome itself somewhat, the tutorial gestures work for whatever reason, but I can not delete gestures or use others. Reopening

Sorry for not replying earlier. Are you sure that you are running Fly-Pie 3? The current version is Fly-Pie 16...

Off to a good start, it is Flypie 16, I was wrong. Not sure where I pulled that number from.

Just to make sure that I understood this correctly: You are trying to drag a menu in the menu editor of Fly-Pie's settings dialog? So a more complete list of required steps would be this?

  1. Open Fly-Pie's settings dialog
  2. Navigate to the "Menu Editor" page
  3. Click the "+" button in the top right corner
  4. Select "Custom Menu", a new menu shows up in the menu grid.
  5. Start dragging the newly created menu item in the menu editor.
  6. Crash.

Is this correct? Have you tried switching from X11 to Wayland or the other way around? Does the issue happen on both?

Those are the exact steps to reproduce, and I am unable to test Wayland as it is currently unsupported by Solus OS.

I've gone ahead and tested this on my laptop and it works fine there, so I can confirm it is a hardware issue with the tablet. Specifically the touch input handling vs click handling on PC, if I had to guess.

Actually the menu editor is pretty unusable using touch or pen input anyways. As this should be improved, I created #269 and will close this issue here.
