Thunar frequently hangs or crashes spontaneously.
Hello,
I am currently having a lot of trouble with Thunar, Symptoms fall into two cases
- open Thunar windows become unresponsive.
When I hit the red x in the upper right corner of the window a dialog pops up saying that the process is unresponsive, and offers to kill it. if I respond yes then all Thunar windows in all workspaces are closed, and I can open new directories with Thunar. This is very frustrating, since it interrupts my workflow and I must reopen all of the directories I was working in and find where I was working in them again. If I respond no, then clicking on any icons on my desktop, even non directory icons, does nothing.
- Thunar spontaneously crashes and closes all open Thunar windows
I can reopen them manually, but again all of my directory context is lost.
I have looked at many open bug reports regarding Thunar and have only found issues regarding specific circumstances, such as with USB drives or gvfs mounts or creating a new file in a currently open Thunar window; none of which seem to apply, allow me to reproduce the bug or provide any solution for me.
I would like to provide more information in this bug report, but don't know where to start. I have been unable to determine where to find log information, either by searching my filesystem, or by doing a google search.
Any help with this issue, including suggestions as to where I could find more diagnostic information for this report, would be greatly appreciated.
I have no specific steps to reproduce these problems, they just happen spontaneously, on average about once a day. 115115 I am running Fedora 31 with kernel 5.7.15-100.fc31.x86_64 on an HP Pavilion a6209n with an AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ CPU. Software is current, I just updated everything this morning.
