[Bug 1236749] Re: Gnome shell extensions disabled at every startup

 

The problem with this bug is that it doesn't exhibit itself consistently
or predictably.

On my previous laptop's Ubuntu GNOME 14.10 setup, reboots worked fine
until some point (a month after installing?), at which point this
behavior started happening... but only on a clean reboot. If I killed
power to my laptop by force instead, extensions would stay. (This
probably further confirms the hypothesis in bug 1385572.) The previous
laptop was a Dell Precision M6400 with a Core 2 Duo CPU and Quadro FX
2700M graphics. I forget if I tried nVidia drivers or not.

So far, I have not seen this happen with clean reboots on my current
laptop. It is a Lenovo G60-45 with the following combined CPU/GPU: "AMD
A6-6310 APU with AMD Radeon R4 Graphics". I mainly use the AMD drivers
due to freezing issues with mesa; I forget if this happened with mesa as
well or not. This is still with Ubuntu GNOME 14.10.
