17R4 GUI hangs when trying to apply theme CLI ok #45

1. Expected behavior.

Apply loaded theme when clicking the :heavy_check_mark:

2. Actual behavior.

GUI hangs with 'Applying Theme' messge. I've let this sit for over 3 hours with no change.

3. Steps to reproduce the problem.

Open the AlienFX GUI and try to apply any theme. I have not tested the power zone, this is only relating to the 'Normal Zones' at the moment.

4. Specifications like the version of the project, install method, operating system, and hardware.

Project Version: 2.2.0
Operating System: Ubuntu 18.04
Hardware Version: 17 r4

5. Additional info.

The CLI command works immediately.

Have you tried creating your own theme and applying it?

billythakidd04 commented 6 years ago

Yes I created a custom theme both through the UI (which works perfectly applying on the cli) and through json.

@derco0n Do you have any idea of what would be causing this bug?

derco0n commented 6 years ago

@trackmastersteve not at the moment, sorry. i'm not at home the next week, i'll try to check and repair that in the following week.

billythakidd04 commented 6 years ago

@derco0n Is there something I can do to test?

alienware:~$ dpkg -l | egrep "libgtk-?[[:digit:]].*:amd[[:digit:]]{2}"
ii  libgtk-3-0:amd64                           3.22.30-1ubuntu1                    amd64        GTK+ graphical user interface library
ii  libgtk2.0-0:amd64                          2.24.32-1ubuntu1                    amd64        GTK+ graphical user interface library

@billythakidd04 can you try copying the 10-alienfx.rules file from /etc/udev/rules.d/ to /lib/udev/rules.d/ and see if that helps? I remember I had to do that once before. But I can't remember if that was Ubuntu or not.

billythakidd04 commented 6 years ago

@trackmastersteve that works brilliantly.

Glad it worked!
