Package: gnome-shell
Version: 3.4.2-5
Severity: normal

I started gnome-shell 3.4.2-5 for the first time today, did what I
always do (start up a few gnome-terminal windows and iceweasel), and
about 10 minutes later, it hung.  I don't know if it was exactly 10
minutes.  It took me a few minutes to notice it because I wasn't doing
anything when it happened, and it didn't occur to me to look at the
clock to see what time it was frozen at.  I had to "kill -9" it, and it
restarted and has been running fine for about 3 hours now.

Versions 3.4.2-3 and earlier hung at startup about 10% of the time, and
were fine after that.

If it's going to hang, I'd rather it did it right at startup so I can
deal with it then and get it over with.

Maybe I just got really unlucky.  It remains to be seen how frequent
hangs like that are going to be for me.  But from my point of view, the
new version hanging the first time I try it is worrisome.

I'm going to install gnome-shell-dbg now.
