[Github-comments] [geany/geany] geany freezes 10 seconds when I save or edit coming from another app (ubuntu 20.10) (#2737)

[elextr]

I don't run Ubuntu itself, but its my understanding that you select X11 or Wayland at the login screen.

> echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE returns x11

Suggests you chose X11 by default or deliberately.

> I opened a terminal and typed this on 1 line as cited (without the end point) and got an error.

Would have been good to tell us the error, but given above its probably not important.

So if you are running with the "conventional" window system, and none of the other points you note seem relevant, and you say Geany isn't using lots of CPU, then its probably waiting for the system to tell it something, but I don't know what. Geany certainly works for others on Ubuntu 20.10 so something is unique about your setup.

Possibly you could run geany under the debugger and see where its hung, but I suspect that the system package may not have symbols, so it might not help, but try it if you can.

Any other suggestions welcome.
