dimming and hanging
I don't know why it happens but sometimes to any window it dim a little bit and hanging. It took about 2-5 seconds and it's annoying.
Not happened on my thinkpad.
It is different hardware maybe?
What might be the cause?
Could you guys try to describe the issue a little more? Or better yet, share a video? Also, please report your system configuration (nvidia etc).
System Information
OS: Arch Linux (rolling) Kernel: 6.16.4-arch1-1 CPU: Intel Core i5-10400F @ 2.90GHz RAM: 16 GB Omarchy: v2.1.0 GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT (navi23) Driver: Mesa / radeonsi (LLVM 20.1.8, DRM 3.64)
In my case, it mostly happens with Chromium, but it can also occur with other applications. The window dims and I get the message “Application not responding” with the options to Terminate or Wait. This happens several times a day.
The "Application not responding" message is from Hyprland, when it detects an application stops responding to messages. If it's happening too much or is annoying you can turn it off entirely:
misc {
enable_anr_dialog = false
}
Or can make it less sensitive by setting anr_missed_pings (the variables are documented near the bottom of the misc category).
I've upped the missed pings from 1 to 3 on dev. So this should allow 3x the time before that message appears.
I don't think increasing the ANR dialog pings or completely disabling it would solve the problem. It only ignores messaging, while the dimming and hanging issues still persist!
This problem occurs when there are peaks in disk activity (I/O), as shown in the image, especially on Chromium, Google Chrome, and Microsoft Edge.
