hi, this machine has not been much customised. I only switched display manager because the supplied one did not work. I cannot reinstall and lose data.
Display link does not work on at least 2 of my systems with kernel 5.13 and they reopened a bug because I reported it - those drivers are always behind and rather unstable in my experience, especially with nouveau currently.
I hope devs can come up with a better answer because I bet a lot of folks will run into this issue.
I uninstalled caffeine, removed plugins from /usr/share and the problem remains.
I would say I am rather handy with Linux, that is why I run dev builds sometimes and report issues.
If I want buggy drivers and no support I can just install windows, man even macOS runs better on both machines.
Please notify the gdm3 devs and gnome-extensions ones, because stuff changed there.
You can also close the bug, but I am not gonna waste my time on finding the issue anymore then.
Isn´t the whole point of open source software that users make it better :)?
Also, I the time of reporting was right after the update, so it can´t be too hard to find.
This issue does not occur on another machine with a recent install of 20.04 and having that updated. That said, this machine certainly does not go further back than 18.04, I think actually 20.04 too.
How about we try to find the cause? You have not answered the question about where to find this plugins that are in the bug report, like xcaffeine.
thanks
