Be helpful

Posts to pop_os must be helpful. When responding to a user asking for help, do not provide tongue-in-cheek responses like "RTM" or links to LMGTFY. Linking to direct sources that answer the asker's question is fine, but it's advised to provide some explanation as to how you got to that source.

Critique should be constructive

We within the Pop!_OS community welcome helpful criticism or ideas on ways to improve. However, basic "It's bad" or other simple negative comments don't help anyone fix anything. When voicing a complaint about something, try to point out ways the complaint could be improved or worked around, so that we can make a better product for it.

This rule applies to both Pop!_OS and its projects as well as other products available from third-parties.

Don't post malicious "advice"

It can be funny to joke about malicious commands, however this is not the venue for it. Do not advise users to run commands which will lock up their systems, steal their data, or erase their drive. Examples of this include (but are not limited to) fork bombs, rm, etc.

Posts violating this rule will be removed, even if the post is clearly in jest. Repeated offences may lead to a ban. You may understand that the command isn't serious, but a new user might not.

[Solved, Debug] Online Accounts freezes when adding Gmail (lemmy.world)

submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

4 comments fedilink hide all child comments

For some reason I had to renew my Google credentials on one of the accounts I had on Pop!, it was acting weird (The window was freezing) so I removed the account and tried to re-add it.

Now when I go to add a Gmail account it freezes either at the first screen as soon as you try and advance, or it freezes just as the password screen is loading typically before the fade overlay is fading out.

I tested against the other available accounts, the other windows work without crashing. This is limited to the Google window only.

Using the advice in this post I used the WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1 gnome-control-center command to bring up the window and sign in. Though the first time I tried it I got an HTTP error 400, the second time the password field loaded as uninteractable, and the third time worked.

Is there a way of debugging what's gone on here?

You can try running gnome-control-center with the verbose (-v) flag to get more debugging information:

gnome-control-center -v

Do you happen to have NVIDIA? If so, it seems like this is an issue with WebKit and certain GPUs:

Then in the middle we find

Then at the point I click to progress on the google window I get the following repeated, the sub window freezes and can be closed to restore activity

Interesting... that has nothing to do with compositing, but rather TLS/SSL (ie. encryption). I'm not sure what would be the cause of that though :|

I wonder if I blocked something important when I used a tracker-blocking list for my Hosts file 🤔
