Hi Ok to answer the first point. When I typed Desktop Session it simply said Gnome. So I am assuming Gnome +Xorg. The crashing happens when I open a file browser. It also crashes when I go to system. But it doesn't all the time and from what I can remember no one single thing causes a crash. Gnome Shell quit unexpectedly. Running Gnome-shell 3.26.2-2.fc27.x86_64 It won't show me the details just crashes again. It says under reports ABRT Server Found out more reason gnome-software killed by SIGSEGV crash function gtk_stack_set_visible_child_name As to the Fedy - sorry I did install but can't find anything called Fedy. So I presume installing Fedy simply adds the codecs but I'm unsure.
