[1.1.42] Factorio makes XOrg freeze sometimes
Posted: Wed Oct 27, 2021 12:57 am
I lately have factorio running a sandbox with the editor and time set to x64 a lot. Meanwhile I alt-tab to firefox and start writing a forum post and use gimp to make screenshots or other things. Suddenly firefox won't accept any inputs anymore. I can still move the mouse but can't click any buttons or enter any text. Can change focus with the mouse or alt-tab. Only thing that works is killing XOrg. Killing factorio or firefox has no effect, the screen doesn't update at all. Only the mouse pointer still moves.
I'm fairly certain it's not a hardware problem since the mouse still works and switching to the text console and killing XOrg works. I only ever had this happen with factorio running at an accelerated speed. It only happened after I updated from 1.1.38 but that might just be because I didn't use the editor to accelerate time. I think it has never happened with factorio in the foreground but I'm not 100% certain.
After killing XOrg factorio either dies on it's own (previous) or I have to kill it (current). First time factorio survived killing XOrg, all other times it died on it's own.
