Failed with Gnome 3.8

[Tulpenzwiebel]

Hi Guys,

you added support for Gnome 3.8, but this version of the extensions crashes my GnomeShell. I'm using ArchLinux with GnomeShell 3.8.1 on kernel 3.8.11-1-ARCH. Here is part of my systemlog (journalctl), directly after reboot I opened gnome-tweak-tool and activated battery-remaining-time. This crashes the GnomeShell and brings me back to log in and deactivates every extension. Link: http://pastebin.com/an0e1JN3 Do you need any other information?

Greetings, Felix

Yes, you're right. The last commit is missing a file. I already knew the problem, but didn't find time to fix it. Will do that now...

Thanks a lot :-) :+1: Waiting for it and thanks for port to GnomeShell 3.8 :-)

Do you know specifically what the problem is w/ gnome 3.8? Still crashing shell when I enable it. If you know what the problem is but don't have the time, I'd be willing to fix it.

Hi. Its a bit strange. It works on Gnome 3.8, but crashes on some Ubuntu installations. I got it working on Arch, then cleanly installed Ubuntu 13.04 and it worked! On my provious clean Ubuntu 13.04 installation it keeped crasing the shell. I have absolutely no idea.

Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub.

I'm running Arch and it's been crashing mine, so it's not the OS (32 bit if that makes a difference). Maybe I have a package installed that's conflicting? Did the logs say anything when it crashed?

For me (Fedora 19 → Gnome 3.8.2) it is working fine. Maybe you can add 3.8 to metadata again? thx

Hi, I installed your extension from the gnome extension website, and it's not working... I'm running Sabayon with Gnome 3.8.4

Actually, someone posted the solution in the comments : open $HOME/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/battery-remaining-time@dadexix86.github.com/metadata.json with a text editor, change 3.6 to 3.8 on line 9, logout/login, that's it.

lerpe is right on the money. Extension would not load through the website though, just git.

Current gnome-shell version is 3.22.3 and the hack of editing the metadata does not work anymore. Is this extension dead or can I make it work?
