[Github-comments] [geany/geany] freezes frequently, unfreezes on ALT+TAB (#2658)

> @jansalleine full screen issues have been reported before #1532 and #1787 for eg. But it still comes back to my comment [above](https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/2658#issuecomment-745023264) which I also said on a number of the previous issues as well. Until the problem happens to/for somebody who can (capable and has time) debug it nothing will happen unfortunately.

But until somebody debugs the problem its not fixable. IIRC suggestions for debugging were made on previous issues but (perhaps understandably) people just found a workaround and didn't contribute further.

Hey, so what do I have to do to provide the debug output that could help? I must admit I don't fully understand how Gnome 3 X11 session works. Does it still run through Wayland despite its name? I run Gnome 3 + X11 on my desktop and my laptop, because this seems to be the most "stable" option for the majority of the programs I use. The only exceptions are geany and xfce-terminal. Both suffer from those occasional hick-ups.
