Build Identifier: Version: 3.7.1.r37x_v20110729-9gF7UHOxFtniV7mI3T556iZN9AU8bEZ1lHMcVK Build id: M20110909-1335 Eclipse locks up. I can move the cursor around, and stuff that is selected is highlighted. But I cannot open menus, right click anything, flip windows, etc.. Also all my other applications are completely frozen within X windows. I have to use control + f1 to go to the console and then kill the process before using f7 to return to X. Attached is a stack trace from kill -3. I cannot yet reliably reproduce the issue. Opening/closing many projects and working with the M2 mercurial plugin sometimes aggravates things, but not always. Linux Distro: DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=11.10 DISTRIB_CODENAME=oneiric DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 11.10" Linux cfield-dev 3.0.0-13-generic #22-Ubuntu SMP Wed Nov 2 13:27:26 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Spring IDE Version: 2.8.1.201111220115-RELEASE Also this seems to occur most of the time after eclipse is open a while, but occasionally it happens within an hour or two of starting eclips. Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce
Created attachment 209039 [details] Stack Trace from kill -3 during hang
(In reply to comment #1) > Created attachment 209039 [details] > Stack Trace from kill -3 during hang The stack trace doesn't indicate that Eclipse is frozen.
It happened again. I did a view history with the mercurial plugin, then went away from my computer and came back to find the whole PC frozen again. If I hovered over the various icons they would be highlighted, but I could not click on them (mainly toolbar ikons and the tasks window icons). If I hovered over the bottom/right of the navigator, history window, or some of the other window the little scroll arrows would appear (although I could not scroll) and then disappear. I took a stack trace. I waited a while and played around some more, and the icons stopped being highlighted, but the scroll arrows still appeared. My X session (KDE) was totally frozen. But control + alt + f1 successfully opened up a console session from which I could issue kill -3 to eclipse and then kill -9. Once eclipse died everything became unlocked. The lock may be something in kde that freezes everything, however eclipse is definitely the cause because once I kill -9 eclipse everything unlocks. Attached are my stack traces as ThreadDump20120105.txt.
