Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-settings-
Hi,
I ran an upgrade last night which upgraded a large number of packages, presumably including the core gnome stuff.
When I logged in this morning gnome was very slow to start up. When everything was finally present the screen elements kept flickering horizontally (it's hard to describe to be honest) in a very distracting way. I was going to kill GSD (from experience I suspected it was reprobing constantly), but then it stopped after a minute or so. I thought all was okay.
Then after another five minutes or so, the flickering started again. I killed GSD and the issue immediately went away. I'm attaching my .gnome-
