GUI freezes randomly when a string input field is active (Linux)
When a string input field is active (that means, when I press keys, it writes something into it) (the chat does it also), the GUI sometimes freezes for a long time. The memory or CPU usage doesn't seem to exceed reasonable bounds, just the GUI doesn't react. When I send SIGTERM to Minetest, it closes quickly.
EDIT: When I press Ctrl, Shift or Alt, it unfreezes.
OS: Ubuntu 18.04 CPU: Intel® Core™ i3-6100U CPU @ 2.30GHz × 4 GPU: Intel® HD Graphics 520 (SKL GT2)
Please build IrrlichtMt with examples enabled and see if you can reproduce this in 05.UserInterface
.
Yes, it happens there also.
It looks like the GUI unfreezes when I press Ctrl.
What's a good way to reproduce this issue now that the examples have been scrapped?
You can add that particular one back locally, I'm sure it still compiles. Or alternatively test in MT of course.
Couldn't repro in Minetest or in 05.UserInterface example, but I did not try for very long. @Hume2 do you have any more specific instructions for how I can be sure I can or can't reproduce this issue?

I think I can reproduce these too, now. Didn't happen before. Specifically with the chat console.
