Bug

While switching workspace with blur my shell on it works as expected but i get following logs in journalctl -f is there something wrong with it?

Do you use noise/colour effects?

If so, yes, there is something wrong with it due to my poor implementation, but to be honest I could not find a better way to do it... I guess this will need to stay as it until the cogl pipeline bug is fixed in gnome-shell/mutter, as this is due to a hack I did in order not to eat all the ram on your machine :)

I'm getting this as well, I unchecked 'Color and noise effects' but still get these errors. In my case just entering overview also gets these messages.

Thanks @aunetx for the response, I tried disabling and enabling noise and colour effects toggle but it doesn't seem to have any impact on issue, also @asegarra I can confirm the same issue while entering overview. That said it doesn't seem to have any noticeable impact on performance.

Yep getting the same on mine. No issue with with stability but there is a lot of noise in the journal when troubleshooting other items.

Hello, #546 should fix this (or at least it fixed this for me)! Please reopen the issue if it still appears after the PR is merged
