After system freeze: mousepad doesn't load normally, but uses ~100% of one of my cores
Recently my system froze while mousepad was open, the crash by itself seemed not to be related to mousepad, it appeared after I started a video with mpv.
After I had to force shutdown my PC by holding the power-button, mousepad doesn't seem to work/load anymore.
My OS is Fedora 35 x64 using XFCE.
My current version of mousepad is 0.5.9
I then just reinstalled it via dnf
, but that didn't help either.
When I start it via sudo it loads normally, so I assume it's somehow tied to my user account.
What mousepad currently does, when I start it, is that the process is just there, using nearly 100% of one of my 2 CPU-cores, but does nothing else.
When I try to kill the process via the kill
command, it doesn't close either and is still displayed running, when I look its process up via ps -e | grep mousepad
.
Since it seems to be tied to my user, is there any option to, for example, clear a cache or something similar?
I also had severally unsaved tabs open within mousepad, so I would prefer to keep the last session somehow, or maybe make a backup from that, by any chance. But I did not find the place yet where they are temporary saved.
