I have a brand new laptop and running Ubuntu 18.10 on Wayland. Everything is working fine but I am keeping an eye on the logs. Today a new warning appeared:



Unrecoverable failure in required component org.gnome.Shell.desktop


What does this mean? There doesn't seem to be any problems at all with the laptop or with Gnome.



EDIT. Output of ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions requested below:

  • Wayland is probably the problem. At your login screen, click the cogwheel icon and choose "Ubuntu". Also, you could have a bad GNOME extension. Report back to @heynnema

  • @heynnema But I want to use Wayland rather than Xorg!

  • Well, then you're probably going to have problems. Wayland is not really ready for prime time. Try my suggestion, and see if it helps. You can always go back. Report back.

  • I've been using Wayland since Ubuntu 17.10, so for almost 18 months on my old laptop without any problems. But anyway, I booted into Xorg and the same warning appears. So it is not Wayland that is causing the warning. By the way, there is no problem or symptoms, other than the warning, in either Xorg or Wayland.

  • Fair enough. Edit your question with the output of ls -al ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions. Report back to @heynnema
