Odd Behavior in FreeCAD and Cura - OS Update Related?
by rebeltaz from LinuxQuestions.org on (#538XB)
I am running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with Cura v3.2.0 (via AppImage) and FreeCAD v0.18.4. Up until today, everything has been running fine. Tonight, I went to edit a sketch in FreeCAD in a previously created model. Normally, when I click on the sketch, it opens immediately. Now, it is taking 20 to 30 seconds to open. During that timeframe, I can move the mouse, but nothing responds to it or any clicks - no other program nor any system function. If I do click something while the system is lagging, it will react to the click(s) after that 20 to 30 second delay.
I though this might be a FreeCAD issue alone, but then I pulled up Cura and loaded a model into that. When I went to change the filament profile, the screen went white with relics of the Cura menu visible and again froze for 20 to 30 seconds just like FreeCAD. It also does that randomly regardless of the actions I'm trying to perform. Cura, though, will randomly either start working again or just crash with no messages or warnings when this happens.
I haven't installed or changed anything, but I am wondering if this might be related to a system update maybe? I mean, nothing else has changed to cause this. I am including a log of the update history. If there is anything that might be causing this, or if anyone has any ideas, I am all ears! I really need to get these programs working again...
