Display switching died after last chroagh update #64

Closed wjstarrsiii closed 9 years ago

wjstarrsiii commented 9 years ago

Hi, run arch in chroot with i3 as my window manager sitting on top of xfce4. (installed xfce4, disabled the desktop, window manager, panel from session, and then auto-started i3).

Worked like a charm for the longest time.

After the most recent update, i logged in and it went back to the full xfce4 desktop. I re-did my mods to return to i3, then noticed that Shift-Ctl-Alt-Right or Left no longer switch me back to ChromeOS. The only way to get back is to log out of the arch session. I don't see any messages in the shell terminal when I return that seem helpful. Anywhere else I can look or any suggestions?

Thanks

Update: It is only an issue within the arch chroot. I have also used croagh to install a Trusty chroot, with xfce4, and it switches back out fine. Any ideas what may be missing that is causing me grief?

Can you provide the output of croutonversion?

Does Ctrl-Alt-Left/Refresh work?

wjstarrsiii commented 9 years ago

This is what I get from within arch:

crouton: version git release: arch architecture: x86_64 targets: xfce host: version 6158.70.0 (Official Build) stable-channel peppy

In trusty it's the same, except for release of course.

Ctrl-Alt-F5 (fullscreen key on my C720) will exit arch and take me to a blank screen, then Ctl-Alt-Left dumps me back to my shell tab, but I'm stuck there. If I try Sh-Ctl-Alt-Right to get back into arch, I get an error stating sudo: a password is required.

I then need to Ctl-C to get out of it. I updated trusty again to make sure they were at the same level of crouton and they are, and trusty still works.

I uninstalled i3, deleted any xfce4 config and session files, re-installed xfce4, and same happens. Here is everything after starting X (including the Clt-Alt-Maximize and Ctl-Alt-Left ) in case there are any clues.

Yet one more update, I created a brand new arch chroot with chroagh 455e.... using:

sudo sh installer/main.sh -r arch -t xfce4 -e

And once complete, I still can't switch out of it.

wjstarrsiii commented 9 years ago

Is there some terminal / alt-F2 command I can run to manually switch back over or am I just stuck?

dvbuntu commented 9 years ago

I just wanted to pipe in that I also have this issue just after updating. I'm running openbox as my window manager. I was able to alt-ctrl-F2 to get to an alternate ChromeOS terminal, and then alt-ctrl-F1 to get back to my regular ChromeOS. But from there I couldn't figure how to get back into chroagh.

Landrash commented 9 years ago

Having the same problem. Tried with xfce4 and e17. Doesn't seem to happen on crouton - ubuntu for me.

Fresh install with devmod enabled. Samsung Chromebook 2.

dvbuntu commented 9 years ago

One thing I noticed: after changing back to the main ChromeOS, hitting the ctrl-alt-shift-F1 (which would normally switch back) shows an error in the terminal where I launched the chroot. It states:

sudo: a password is required

I did also just update ChromeOS; maybe they changed something in their bash that uses sudo? I'm on an Acer C720.

marcobhr commented 9 years ago

Same problem here (like dvbuntu). But i can still switch by using the croutoncycle script with root permissions from within the chroot.

I'm on Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga 11e chromebook (Glimmer) The problem occured after i accidentaly reset my chromebook and had to reinstall the chroot, i tried older commits, which didn't work either. Seems to be a problem of the new Chrome OS version like dvbuntu mentioned.

wjstarrsiii commented 9 years ago

Thanks, didn't know about croutoncycle script. Now I can get back to ChromeOS, but only once. When I try to go back S-C-A-right, I get the sudo required in the original terminal. To switch back I need to open a second chroot with terminal only and execute the sudo croutoncycle command from it. A pain but lets me get back to my workflow.

marcobhr commented 9 years ago

For some reason i don't get the sudo error anymore when trying to switch from chrome to my arch, but this one:

/usr/local/bin/croutoncycle: line 47: /tmp/crouton-lock/cycle: Permission denied

seems to have something to do with root permissions as well.

@drinkcat Ctrl-Alt-Left/Refresh does work for me, i can switch from my xfce-session to Chrome OS by pressing Ctr-Alt-Left and get back from Chrome OS by pressing Ctrl-Alt-Right + Ctrl-Alt-Refresh, Thanks.

wjstarrsiii commented 9 years ago

That combination seems to be working for me too. I think when I saw those key combos above in earlier posts it was not clear to me that the C-A-Rt, C-A-Refr had to be done sequentially. I'm not getting any permission-related errors using these combos though.

marcobhr commented 9 years ago

I am only getting the errors when pressing Ctrl-Alt-Shift-Left/RIght no errors for the refresh thing as well.

drinkcat commented 9 years ago

Sorry for the delay. Fixed by a1c36153dbfb9dfc0e4cc879dc45aae42e00dc80.

dvbuntu commented 9 years ago

This still seems to be broken? I can switch out of chroagh just fine, but I C-A-S-Left/Right does nothing. This was on a fresh install with x11,audio, cli-extra targets and openbox as a manager. No errors show up when attempting to switch back, so that seems to be an improvement. xfce seemed to work ok, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

dvbuntu commented 9 years ago

As a workaround, it is possible to launch a chroagh chroot from a different ChromeOS vt. So instead of making a new tab and launching a shell within that, I did C-A-Right to get a different ChromeOS virtual terminal, login with user chronos and your password. Then launch as normal. To switch between, I use C-A-Left and C-A-Right (as though they are C-A-F1, and C-A-F2, of course). This seems to be just as good.

wjstarrsiii commented 9 years ago

It is working fine for me going back and forth with C-A-L/R after updating the evening of the 18th.
