Gnome desktop crashes when moving window to 2nd monitor

I am in the testing branch. I am not sure what information I should provide, so please ask.

When I move a window to the second display, or if a window opens in the second display, then gnome desktop crashes and after 2 seconds of a black screen, gnome login appears and I can login into my account

I would like to add that I am in the testing branch, I think a recent update might have caused this.

Can you reproduce the issue after disabling all extensions and logging out?

Gnome seems to have disabled all extensions automatically after it crashed a few times.

The issue still persists.

Please post your system info as outlined here:

Hmm, might be related to the issue with hybrid graphics posted in today’s Testing Update thread. Perhaps try downgrading xorg-server:

Which command would that be exactly? I don’t want to mess it up.

See Downgrading packages - Manjaro

sudo downgrade xorg-server xorg-server-common

Choose 1.20.11 for both packages.

Yeah this seems to have fixed the problem. So should I upgrade these packages when a newer version comes out?

Yes. Hopefully the next release will contain a fix.
