Cannot access preferences in Manjaro GNOME 42.1 #299

Closed nairadithya closed 2 years ago

When clicking Preferences in the 3 dots in the Settings menu, Settings crashes and I have to Force Quit Settings. I am not able to enable Setup through the Top Bar in GNOME either.

I guess you mean this:

This also happens on Fedora 36 and I reported it also in the Red Hat Bugzilla:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2073306

It happens only when using Gnome on Wayland, it works when using Gnome on Xorg.

This happens not only for ibus-typing-booster but for all ibus input methods (You can try the Japanese input method ibus-anthy for example or the Chinese input methods “Intelligent Pinyin”, it happens for all.

So I am pretty sure that this has nothing to do with ibus-typing-booster but is a problem in Gnome.

I am not able to enable Setup through the Top Bar in GNOME either.

This works for me though.

What also works is opening the setup from the command line like this:

python3 /usr/share/ibus-typing-booster/setup/main.py

As opening the ibus-typing-booster setup from the command line works, it doesn’t seem likely that not being able to open it from the gnome-control-center has anything to do with ibus-typing-booster.

As this has nothing to do with ibus-typing-booster, I’ll close the issue here.
