Description

Current behavior

When clicking around in the Boostnote 0.11.17 Interface Settings and trying to change the theme, Linux 5.2 will freeze. No error message. No kernel panic. Just frozen. Sysrequests don't work anymore.

I have reverted to the older 0.11.7 and the issue is gone.

Steps to reproduce

  1. use AMD "Picasso" APU hardware
  2. go to preferences > interface
  3. browse around, mess with interface theme and editor theme
  4. after a few minutes, observe freeze

Environment

  • Boostnote 0.11.17
  • Linux Mint 19.1 Cinnamon x64
  • Linux 5.2.0-050200rc7-generic
  • AMD Ryzen 5 3400G with Radeon Vega Graphics
  • AMD RAVEN (DRM 3.32.0, 5.2.0-050200rc7-generic, LLVM 8.0.0) (0x15d8) 19.0.2
  • OpenGL 4.5 (Compatibility Profile) Mesa 19.0.2
  • OpenGL shading language 4.50
  • OpenGL ES 3.2 Mesa 19.0.2
  • OpenGL ES GLSL ES 3.20

Other comments

Hardware is relatively new. Not sure if this is something related to some Boostnote programming, or an Electron issue. Where can I see the electron version? Curious to know what is the Electron version for both 0.11.7 and 0.11.17.
