Background stays black after changing user desktop directory [BUG] #174

Open wahve3 opened 2 years ago

wahve3 commented 2 years ago

Describe the bug Since I have changed the Desktop directory for my user account in Ubuntu 22.04, the extension stopped working. I can only see a black background. If I go into the extension settings, however, the thumbnail is shown. It is, however, not being set as a desktop background.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

OS: Ubuntu 22.04
Extension Version: 40
GNOME Version: 40

Does the path name have non-latin characters in it (a-zA-Z0-9)? It's a bug atm, but fix is in the next version.

wahve3 commented 2 years ago

No, that's not it.

Can I delete all related settings of the extension somehow?

neffo commented 2 years ago

Can you please enable debugging in the extension and provide some journal outputs? (With luck it's something fixed in the next version that isn't pushed out yet.)

You can reset/delete settings with dconf-editor.

Is this issue still occurring? You may need to change your folder again to clear the issue.

wahve3 commented 2 years ago

Yes, it is. As soon as I have the extension installed, the background is completely black, so I always uninstall it for now. I have enabled debugging in the extension settings, but where can I find the logs?
