Logout - When I want move a app

As soon as I try to move an icon in the overview to put it in a folder or move an application from one desktop to another, Gnome sends me a crash message and logout.

Why have you created 3 topics with the same subject?

I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to, I tried to delete them but I can’t

Please provide information about what version of Fedora and Gnome, and try to find some logs (gnome-logs). Also check if ABRT has captured the crash - you may want to report it, if possible.

Check the journal for the oom killer running.
Also have a look at dmesg output for kernel reported issues.
I see you have 32GiB but wonder if you are running something that uses up all of memory.

I don’t understand the oom killer.
I don’t have anything using all my memory, it’s 7% usaged

Not sure what you mean. Baeldung.com may clarify what OOM does. ā€œkilled by signal 9ā€ is how OOM terminates a process. Some bugs fill memory quickly, so

may have missed a transient event.

Archlinux? How is that involved with your Fedora system.

There is no Archlinux involved in Fedora.
Running the command ā€œdmesg -kā€ and seeing ā€œnouveauā€ I thought that my Nividia card had a problem and on Archlinux I need to install the named packages for it to work.

I wonder if you need to install the nvidia drivers from rpmfusion?
Personally I use the rpmfusion drivers as nouveau does not works for games.
In the past it did not work for wayland or x11 for me.

If you want try that see Howto/NVIDIA - RPM Fusion

You might also be aware that the nouveau driver seems to not support hardware acceleration on any nvidia GPU and in some cases does not support newer gpus without the ā€˜nomodeset’ option.
For full performance of the nvidia gpu and graphics intensive apps it is necessary to install the nvidia drivers to replace the nouveau drivers.

I tried but I don’t understand anything

How do you replace the nouveau driver?

We might be able to explain if we had details about the steps taken (including commands) and the responses to those actions.

Posting the actions with copy and paste while including that data within the preformatted text tags (the </> button on the toolbar) would provide the details.

Installing the nvidia drivers will automatically enable that driver and replace the nouveau driver. The steps shown in the link by Barry just above would be good start.

sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia

reboot

How to find out which drivers are installed and used ?
But I think that :

sudo dnf install rpmfusion-nonfree-release-tainted
sudo dnf swap akmod-nvidia akmod-nvidia-open

Several ways.
first:
lsmod | grep -iE 'nouveau|nvidia'
If that returns a list of nvidia modules then the nvidia driver is in use. If it instead returns nouveau modules then nvidia is not loaded.

Second:
dmesg | grep -iE 'nvidia|nouveau|secure'
First look at the lines containing secure. If it indicates that secure boot is enabled then the nvidia driver cannot load without performing other steps.
The remaining lines will show either the nouveau driver loading or the nvidia driver loading.

If secure boot is enabled and the nvidia drivers are not loading then there are now 2 choices.

  1. Disable secure boot within the system bios to allow unsigned modules to load.

  2. Create a user defined certificate and recompile the nvidia modules signed by that certificate so they will load with secure boot enabled.
    This involves 2 steps.
    A. create and import the key using the instructions in /usr/share/doc/akmods/README.secureboot
    B. recompile the nvidia modules with
    sudo dnf remove kmod-nvidia-\* then sudo akmods --force.
    Once the akmods command ends simply reboot and repeat the lsmod command above to ensure the nvidia drivers are now loaded.
