Dear Leslie,that's exactly the reason on why to install the elder release: to rule out, that your machine is part of the problem. You might rightfully object here, that ext4 works fine for you on the very same machine, but then one can argue, that is stresses the system differently. Thus, if you can reproduce the problem with the elder version, then we know that the triple (machine, elder kernel, gnome-3.24) is also vulnerable. That a noble cause indeed. But in that case, you should really try a different distribution to check if you can reproduce the issue there, too. Thus, the Fedora people know if it's a problem only within Fedora or a general problem.
That's a fair point. But reproducing the problem is a lot easier, if you find the minimal set of building blocks, that reproduces it - say: gnome-3.26 vanilla + btrfs + this extension. See, I'm running gnome-3.26 on btrfs myself plus at least half of the extensions you are using and it works fine for me. That's why it would be great to find the one extension, which is causing problems for you. You might as well try "Antergos", the ArchLinux variant I'm using, enable the "testing" repositories and see if it has the same issues as Fedora on your machine. Is there any version compatible with later GNOME versions? The latest version seems to be 3.8. I didn't imply any gender, did I? If so, than I'm sorry. Kind regards, Olaf |
