Gnome on Xorg crashes after zypper update

Overmorrow · July 25, 2025, 6:47am

Hi guys,

After performing a zypp update Gnome won’t start anymore during boot giving this error:

**Oh no! Something has gone wrong.
**A probleme has occured and the system can't recover.

If system is booted into init 3 and then user runs startx gnome shell spawns but there are too many artifacts on screen to be used and also most of programs which need some gtk glibraries won’t load properly.

My system is configured to use xorg, but I also tried to switch to wayland to see if the problem the display server, but it doesn’t seem so…

> cat /etc/gdm/custom.conf | grep -v "#" | grep .        
[daemon]
InitialSetupEnable=False
WaylandEnable=false
[security]
[xdmcp]
[chooser]
[debug]

This is what I found from /var/log/messages:

I’ve also tried to disable all user extensions in Gnome, but it didn’t help at all.

> gsettings get org.gnome.shell disable-user-extensions
true

Right now I’ve restored the BTRFS snapshot, but I can’t figure out what could cause this problem.

@Svyatko: I was able to determine what the culprit is.
It’s the GDM package (gdm - 45.0.1-150600.6.8.1 ), after updating it Gnome won’t work anymore.

Switching to LightGDM works without any issue.

I still haven’t found what exactly creates this problem.

Any help is more than welcome!

malcolmlewis · August 2, 2025, 3:52pm

@Overmorrow Hi, any reason not to use Wayland on that hardware?

arvidjaar · August 2, 2025, 5:31pm

Did you verify that downgrading GDM solves the problem?

Overmorrow · August 2, 2025, 5:34pm

@malcolmlewis: Yeah, sadly it’s because of 2 factors:

Software which doesn’t support rendering on Wayland
Wayland, for what I’ve seen in all these years, is not as ready as RedHat wants us think

Anyway as stated in earlier posts, I’ve tried to switch from Xorg to Wayland, but to no avail.

I got the same error, sadly.

Overmorrow · August 2, 2025, 5:35pm

@arvidjaar: Yes, both rollbacking the btrfs snapshot or downgrading using zypper solves the issue

arvidjaar · August 2, 2025, 5:37pm

That downgrades too much.

Well, assuming you only downgraded GDM - you should open bug report.

malcolmlewis · August 2, 2025, 5:59pm

@Overmorrow with that newer GPU, should be fine, likewise you only have a few months left…

Have you configured GDM to use Xorg in /etc/gdm/custome.conf?

Running any GNOME Shell Extensions, they can cause issues?

What applications don’t work under Wayland? I’ve been running Wayland with older HP laptop hardware without issues, it is amdgpu though. No issues with Leap 16.0 Beta running Wayland on older Intel GPU hardware (DELL OptiPlex 3080) . No issues running Aeon with Wayland on similar (Beelink MiniPC) hardware to yours…

Overmorrow · August 3, 2025, 6:02am

@malcolmlewis:

Yes, I said in the first post, switching between xorg and wayland doesn’t solve the issue

Disabled before the update and kept 'em disabled after:

gsettings get org.gnome.shell disable-user-extensions
true

Remmina and Citrix Workspace and VMware Horizon don’t seem to be able to detect and use multiple monitors.
Graphics Tablet Support
Some CAD programs like kicad
And many more reason, the first being that Wayland is way less stable than Xorg

malcolmlewis · August 3, 2025, 2:46pm

@Overmorrow well third party applications you would need to follow up with the upstream folks?

I have a Intuos S graphics tablet which runs fine on Leap/Aeon/Tumbleweed.

With that newer hardware I suspect your experience with Leap 16 will be better

Again, from my experience with a later Mesa and Kernel, GNOME Wayland is far more stable with Intel and Nvidia.

Svyatko · August 4, 2025, 8:23am

Try to downgrade package.
I see older versions:

45.0.1-150600.6.3.2
45.0.1-150600.4.3

Check for Vulkan being installed:

zypper se -s vulkan
vulkaninfo | grep -i vers

Overmorrow · August 11, 2025, 12:27pm

Ok, guys I managed to solve my issue… not in the way I wanted but still solved it.

Sadly I didn’t understand what was really causing that behavior in GDM/Gnome

Anyway once booted intto Init 3 I removed all gnome/xorg/sway pattern and their deps, then performed a zypper update && reboot and finally reinstalled gnome gnome_basic gnome_x11 and everything came back working as usual.

Hence my problem is solved .
