> The issue appears in some applications or some windows (that I'll list after), systematically. Here is what happens in the concerned places:
> * The window is totally empty, white, blank.
> * The whole application freeze, I have to terminate it to close it.
> * In the monitor, it turns from poll_schedule_timeout to futex_wait_queue_me.
> That's instant as soon as the application or dialogue is opened. It does exactly the same with Cinnamon and with Gnome Shell.
> Where does it happen?
> * In the Open/Save/Save-As dialogues of several applications: Firefox, Thunderbird, Chrome, Gnome Subtitles, LibreOffice… I'm unable to open or save anything in them.
> Some applications as a whole: The Gimp, HomeBank, SoundConverter…
> It doesn't happen in:
> * The Open/Save/Save-As dialogues of other applications: Gedit, Inkscape, Transmission, Totem, Brasero… they're all able to open and save.
