'NoneType' object has no attribute 'windowFlags' #75

Closed emacsomancer closed 6 years ago

emacsomancer commented 6 years ago

I've tried it both through Arch's AUR package, and following the manual install instructions, and both ways when I try to run (e.g. python -m webmacs.main), it fails to run, displaying an error: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'windowFlags'.

I'm answering here using an arch (manual install) and I don't see this error. I suspect your graphic card may be an issue there - could you give me the full python backtrace of the error, and some information about your graphic card (using lspci for example) please?

Ah. I have an nVidia card in that machine, and I think there's been a kernel update since I've rebooted. That may be the issue. I'll look into this more tomorrow.

@emacsomancer any news?

emacsomancer commented 6 years ago

@parkouss Yes, I tested it just now and it works on my Arch machine. I suspect it was an Nvidia issue (which, sadly, probably means every time the nvidia driver updates, I'll have to reboot to use Webmacs).

But it seems to be working very nicely right now. (I'm having trouble getting it to work on GuixSD, but I'll likely open a different ticket for that if I can't figure it out.)

It's like using Conkeror again! I used Conkeror for so many years, it was sad when it became more or less unviable. Thanks for making this!
