For a person who needs stable and easy Linux GUI desktop experience, which "Linux Distros"/"Desktop Environments" has the feature to ask user through GUI to close an application if its unresponsive, if not, a visual feature which allow user to clearly see the unresponsive window/application with its changed color/text/graphics?
Optional Side Question: Which "Linux Distro"/"Desktop Environment" keeps other apps running if possible when some app unresponsive?
>Solution :
Gnome already does this. This feature is already available in Ubuntu’s default desktop environment. When an app freezes, it will display a GUI dialogue box with the error message and a few troubleshooting options.
The choices are as follows:
- Force quit: Close the unresponsive application.
- Report: Report a bug to the package maintainer (This is only available with certain apps.)
- Wait: Be patient and wait for the application to respond.
It will not only show the dialogue for applications, but also for services, extensions, themes, and other items if they become unresponsive.
