QRedshitf doesn't work after screen lock #48

Open adrianlopezgalera opened 2 years ago

adrianlopezgalera commented 2 years ago

Hi!

I'm using Linux Mint 20.3. I updated QRedshitf to the latest version (1.7.2) and I detected a bug still present from previous versions. When the screen locks (by time or user choice) and the desktop loads again after entering the password, QRedshitf appears enabled in the taskbar but it doesn't work. Deactivating and re-activating it (with the toggle button) is required for it to reapply the existing settings.

Regards.

I'll take a look at it. Never noticed before... Thanks for the report.

For me it works normal, I lock the screen and it works even on the lock screen.

Hello, I just realized that this bug was already reported (#3). I forgot to say that it happened when changing users. Perhaps I had thought that it also happened with normal blocking without noticing that I switch user several times.

I've noticed the same problem on Mint 21. Thanks.

I have the same problem for a very long time now, on Manjaro (22)

I think this has been fixed in the new versions, can anyone confirm please? I just released the version 2.0.0 by the way.

Hello. I have tested the new version on my laptop with Linux Mint 20.3, connected via HDMI. It does not activate and does not work in any way. My system has become unusable because it is so painful to look at the screen.

Regards.

The version 2.0.0 was reverted back on the repository. For now, if you want the latest version maintained by me you can follow these steps:

  1. Download zip from qredshift@quintao_2.0.0.zip.
  2. Extract .zip archive to ~/.local/share/cinnamon/applets.
  3. Enable the applet in Cinnamon settings

Can you try the new version and check if it works?

Copy and paste that on terminal to update:

curl https://github.com/raphaelquintao/QRedshiftCinnamon/raw/master/install.sh -sSfL | bash

Hello again. I just installed the new version (thanks for providing a script) and it still doesn't work. Does your program keep a error log? If you give me some guidance, I could provide you with a bug report.

Regards.
