Hi, check .config/vivaldi/Crash Reports/completed/ if Vivaldi create a crash log at this time.
A UI freeze could be also a crash, Vivaldi just not close.
Then create a bug report and attach the .dmp file.
The developer can analyze the file and often know why it crash.

Cheers, mib

I have maybe 50 crashes in ~/.config/vivaldi/Crash Reports/completed
Will do as you suggest.
Having problem extracting reports: Why does vivaldi have directories with "spaces" in directory names, e.g., Crash(space)Reports and try to run code on linux. This is a windows thing and doesn't play well in linux.
First thing I would do would be to correct all the directory and file names in the whole app to replace spaces.

Thanks for your ideas. I will keep it moving. Maybe send all crash reports to bug report central.

Hi, MacOS and Windows users are used to use spaces in file names and Linux can handle it easily.
I prefer underline in names too but don't change the file/folder names in the Vivaldi user directory, please.
I guess the next update will fail then.
About the bug report, I guess the crashes has the same reason, maybe add the last 5 or so in a bug report.

Cheers, mib

You're a kde guy. Go into konsole terminal and try to cd into Crash Reports.

mib2berlin

@tckosvic
Yes but since 20 Years, tab is your friend.
cd .config/vivaldi/Crash\ Reports/pending/

I was unaware of that trick. Don't deal in windows much at all anymore.
Have windows as dual boot and also in a vm but only do an update on those once a month or so. Been using openSUSE for going on 20 years, I think. Use leap 15.6 but have TW in a vm to run/compile most recent software. Mate desktop.
Linux graphical file manager does handle the spaces with no problem.
But I would still get rid of the spaces. You never know what can go on down deep in a complex program.

Did get the bug report in with a crash report.

Pleasure talking with you. tom kosvic

I have to, all my customers use Windows, anyway I use the tool is faster.
Please add the bug report number VB- here, I can check and add some tags and so forth.

Looks like I accidentally put it in twice. VB-109766, and VB-109767 from the return email(s).

@tckosvic @mib2berlin VB-109767 is marked as a duplicate.

Just for humor, you need to change your signature blurb from Opensuse to openSUSE. That is the official way to write it. There are some people on openSUSE forum that will get on you.

Just got another "dead bird" icon. This time on youtube. About a week after last one.

tckosvic

Just got another dead bird on vivaldi/espn/ncaaf/scores/gamecast. About 3 days after previous one. Again on a page where an active download was running.

No input from the bug report

@tckosvic
Hi, you get only news from the bug tracker if the bug is fixed and published in a stable release.
At moment the report is not confirmed, and I cant confirm it.
No dead birds on any page including YT and sometimes I use it for hours.

tckosvic

I just got another dead bird. This time on youtube video. About an hour after the previous one that occurred on espn. Vivaldi is up 24 hrs per day. I never shut down my machine or vivaldi.

Frequency is increasing.

I think I will clear the vivaldi cache and see if that makes a difference.

Hi, how do you update your system and Vivaldi without restart?
The last Vivaldi update was at September 25.
If I am not using something for more than a few hours I shutdown everything, even my router, except my refrigerator.
More serious, is the memory footprint stable over time?

Cheers, mib

Hi, how do you update your system and Vivaldi without restart?

Linux systems should be rebooted as soon as a new kernel is received from the distribution and installed.

I have started threads a couple of times stating that vivaldi locks up with dead bird icon sporadically in sites showing videos, e.g., youtube, espn.

I caught some messages in system log just after a dead bird incidient happened. They are below. Hope someone can diagnose this as it is very very annoying.

That is the internal of Vivaldi extension for Picture-in-Picture.

To check which of your extension is interfering please disable all extensions in extension manager and step-by-step enable one, check video page, enable next, check page until you get the broken display. The last enabled extension is the culprit.
