Installing TCC breaks Pulse 14 and Redshift #69

Open IamLunchbox opened 3 years ago

IamLunchbox commented 3 years ago

Problem

Since the Webfai-USB didn't work on my Pulse 14 (Ryzen 4800H Version), I installed Ubuntu 20.04 (encrypted btrfs) myself and added the Tuxedo-Repos to my apt-sources. Then I installed tuxedo-control-center, which broke Redshift, System and Gnome. Somehow the tcc-gui was not provided by the package, eventhough it was when I tested it on an old install (Ubuntu 20.04 with ext4 and tcc via tuxedo.sh).

Expected behaviour

TCC providing advanced control over system- and fan-performance.

Observed behaviour

  1. Redshifts effect was immediately disabled after installing TCC. Redshift is autostarting each session (as I want it to be), but is of no use - neither automatic, manual or cli start.
  2. A restart of the system right after the tcc install crashed gnome after login.
  3. Could be a coincidence: My timeshift-backups (btrfs) disappeared with the install of TCC, other packages have not been installed at that time. Note: Several other packages have been installed beforehand, which never caused any problem with timeshift backups. Even runnig tuxedo.sh let me rollback with timeshift.

Due to these problems I hope TCC didnt break anything in the backend, since I can't roll back now since the timeshift backups are deleted. I uninstalled TCC right away.

If you have any apt install stdout console output, journalctl logs, or dmesg it would be helpful to know what caused the problem.

I also can't get redshift to work on my fresh tuxedo infinity book. I used the webfai to install ubuntu because I didn't like tuxedo OS everything is great except this (so far)
