Dock triggers thousands of warnings in system journal #98

Open rojizo opened 2 years ago

rojizo commented 2 years ago

I was traying to find the culprit of a halt/lag/freeze problem I am getting in the last update of popos (21.10) in both pop and gnome sessions. I have just installed the system today, clean, and the journal is 350Mb. Most of it is full of lines like

repeated thousands of times... I do not really know if this produces the lags and random freezes, but I do not think ir is really positive.

Same here. I even tested with clean install and I still get those messages constantly. I even had total system freeze once when I changed Cosmic doc size.

If am running PopOs with nvidia GPU.

I installed dash to dock and changed the kernel to xanmod... now everything is stable. The kernel has is own issues that freeze my laptop for a sec of something from time to time

I wish they release better kernel and fix to Cosmic dock soon. I don't have expertise to play with 3rd party kernels my daily system. :( I tested Dash to Dock and it was bit buggy too because it uses same settings as Cosmic Dock.

I have noticed that errors stop mostly when I extend Cosmic Dock to edges of the screen. I really wish that they could fix this in next Cosmic update.

Have the same problem. I fixed disabling the dock in Extensions.

I have the same issue, was using "journalctl -f" to see live and noticed that if I turn off dock options:

To reproduce for me:

turn any of the above mentioned settings on and journal gets bombarded with "st_widget_get_theme_node called on the widget [0x555f694f0360 StBin:insensitive first-child last-child] which is not in the stage." and others looking similar.

EDIT: This also happens when opening new applications, but removing extra stuff from dock stops it from doing it at idle. Opening firefox makes new icon pop-up on dock which seems to trigger a small burst of the errors
