vokoscreenNG killed my Centos 8 Stream #249

Open alexisfrjp opened 1 year ago

alexisfrjp commented 1 year ago

Compiled from source, branch 3.0.

  1. Run ./vokoscreenNG, screen became black, unable to see anything
  2. Reboot
  3. Can't logon anymore, the screen becomes back and returns to the login screen...

It f**d up something, I don't even understand why this app needs to touch anything that important that kills gnome.

Can't logon anymore, the screen becomes back and returns to the login screen... This behaves as if the disk is full.

Post what is in the settings and the log Settings: Linux: ~/.config/vokoscreenNG/vokoscreenNG.ini Windows: C:/Users//AppData/Roaming/vokoscreenNG/vokoscreenNG.ini

Log: Linux: ~/.config/vokoscreenNG/log Windows: C:/Users//AppData/Local/vokoscreenNG/log/

There is no log, to avoid wasting time, I had to reinstall gdm and xorg-x11-* and remove all the config files related to them.

The only thing I recognize from the .ini is that vokoscreenNG was on the system for the first time.

I'm trying to download CentOS 8 and install vokoscreenNG. All this in a VirtualBox.

I will try again later, what can I do to have more logs? Centos 8 Stream, not Centos 8 (which is EOL)

I have install centos from here: http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/8-stream/isos/x86_64/

Then changed to x11: https://www.sbarjatiya.com/notes_wiki/index.php/CentOS_8.x_gnome_change_default_gdm_from_wayland_to_X11

Then installed vokoscreen Beta from here: https://linuxecke.volkoh.de/vokoscreen/vokoscreen-download.html

No problem it is works fine.

I installed this iso CentOS-Stream-8-x86_64-20221005-boot.iso from here https://de.mirrors.clouvider.net/CentOS/8-stream/isos/x86_64/
