Crash Cinnamon in Linux mint 18 #47

Closed denegny closed 7 years ago

Install Mint 18 After capture Cinnamon crash

Cinnamon 3.0.6

imarkskinner commented 8 years ago

Yeah same for me, crashes every single time. A work around is to change the screen capture program in the applets settings but for me all the others have quirks I don't like so hopefully this one gets fixed because I love this applet.

Same for me!

No fix yet!

rjanja commented 8 years ago

Considering that this is a problem with Cinnamon and not this applet, there is no easy way to trace down the error causing the crashing.

At the very least I would need a debug report of installed video drivers and what versions of Cinnamon and its dependencies you are running.

I would love to fix the crashing behavior you are seeing. You could file a ticket against Cinnamon if you like, as this applet is only triggering built-in Cinnamon functionality when the crash occurs, and I would certainly take a look.

Partial trace as I don't have all the debug symbols. This is on cinnamon master:

Oops, I actually meant to put that on the Cinnamon issue not here. Sorry about that.

rjanja commented 8 years ago

@itzexor thanks - if you could provide details of what graphics card and driver version you are running, that would be helpful to have alongside the segfault

itzexor commented 8 years ago

For others following along, I responded here https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/issues/5524

leigh123linux commented 7 years ago

Fixed in cinnamon-3.2.0

graineri commented 7 years ago

I'm having a similar issue in Cinnamon 3.2.1 using LMDE2. It does not actually crash but it looks as if it creates an overlay on the screens and the only place I can click on is the panel and clicking over the "Desktop Capture" menu does nothing.

The only way to get control back is by restarting Cinnamon. It used to work correctly until the last Cinnamon upgrade.

leigh123linux commented 7 years ago

@graineri

Without a backtrace or logging your issue doesn't exist.

graineri commented 7 years ago

I would be more than glad to provide anything that could be helpful.

Could you please point me out where I can find any desktop capture logs? (or at least, any other log or backtrace that can help here)

rjanja commented 7 years ago

Hi, I've pushed an update to this applet as 1.06 that should resolve the compatibility problems with Cinnamon 3.2 (and possibly previous versions). Please let me know if this resolves the issue for you. Thanks!

graineri commented 7 years ago

Hi Rob! Now the issue is gone. However, I cannot take screenshots and this is what I'm getting logged: info t=2016-12-28T11:29:35.580Z Save folder does not exist: /home/graineri/file:/home/graineri/Pictures/screenshots, aborting

I tried changing the folder but got the same log line.

Thanks!

rjanja commented 7 years ago

Hi @graineri, thanks for the feedback. I was able to reproduce that as well. I've pushed another update as 1.08. Could you update your local version of the applet and give it another try? Thanks!

graineri commented 7 years ago

Hi @rjanja! Thanks for the quick response.

Now it works but only with the predefined screenshots location. If I change it, I get the same log message as before.

graineri commented 7 years ago

Hi @rjanja! I'm not sure what I did wrong before but now it's working.

rjanja commented 7 years ago

Oh that's great to hear @graineri! Thanks for the feedback!
