Error opening the Keyboard #3

Open talesam opened 4 days ago

talesam commented 4 days ago

I found this error very strange, Cinnamenu does not create any files in the indicated location, but when I try to open the keyboard in Cinnamon, I get this error, trying to look for a json matedata file there.

cinnamon-settings keyboard

Yes, this is due to a bug in cinnamon-settings keyboard module. It's now been fixed (https://shorturl.at/hqvP0) but the fix won't appear until the next version of cinnamon (mint 22.1).

The way to fix this is to install (download) and then uninstall (delete) cinnamenu applet using the cinnamon settings applets dialog. You may also have to add it to a panel and then remove it again as well, I'm not sure.

The shortcut key to open the menu will then be unregistered and then cinnamon-settings keyboard will not try to find it again.
