Gnome crashes in activities overview

Hi guys, I'm new to Gnome 3 and Gnome in general, and I noticed this today:
When I press superkey, I get the activities overview, but if I try to move windows with my mouse
(in a new workspace or just move it around), Gnome crashes, turning all of my extension off.
I usually use shortcuts for this, so I haven't noticed it before, but I know it worked when I installed it (two weeks ago).
Can someone help me with this?

Check ~/.xsession-errors for clues (or post it here).
Did it start failing after an update?

[SOLVED] Gnome 3.12 search results in Activities overview

When I'm searching for an application in the Activities overview I'm getting the icons on the top row of matching applications, and beneath that I have 4 empty rows of search results: 1 for Terminal, 1 for Files, 1 for Keys and 1 for Weather.
Those 4 categories are available in Gnome Control Center under the Search button and are activated. When I completely disable the Search option in the titlebar of Control Center and I restart Gnome-Shell with the 'r' command, I have normal behaviour again. When I enable the Search function and restart Gnome-Shell I get those ugly empty rows again which clutter my search results. Turning on or off 1 of those individual search categories doesn't make a difference, the rows are always empty.
I have a complete up to date stable Gnome 3.12 x64 desktop. I can't remember having this behaviour on 3.10 or having changed the search options lately.
Is there a way to populate the search categories or should I reset some settings / delete some cache? What's the search engine behind all this?

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Chazza!
I installed Tracker (because it wasn't installed yet), configured it, had it index my locations, turn on searching for Files and Weather and logged in again. After that it worked flawlessly.

Remove applications from the list in activities overview in GNOME

I am looking to edit which applications are listed in the "All Applications" in the activities overview in GNOME, since a lot them are NEVER used, and makes the menu look very messy.
Any clues on how to this? I installed the alacarte prog, but it can only edit the "other" menu...

Hi,
I have done it this way, but I do not think it is a very good solution. You can go to /usr/share/applications and delete the applications .desktop files that you do no want to show up in the GNOME 'All Applications'. However, I recommned not to delete but move the applications you do not want to use to another separate folder. Because, if ever you want the application you removed to show up again in 'All Applications' you can just move it back again to /usr/share/applications.

[SOLVED] GNOME crashes (probably after full update)

Hi all,
Today I did a full update with "pacman -Syu" and thus, some new packages were updated. However, after the update and reboot (by myself, not requested by the system as I saw that the kernel is updated - to 2.6.32.19 - as well) then GNOME crashes everytime I do "startx" (I don't use any login manager like GDM or SLiM), neither "xinit" nor "xinit /usr/bin/gnome-session" works too.
The problem is that I still see the mouse cursor and sometimes, the wallpaper as well, then GNOME crashed and I was returned to the command line with lots of messages about gnome-panel disconnected from the bus, several messages about gnome-session and /usr/lib/libdevkit, /usr/lib/libdbus, gnome-screensaver etc.
Sorry for didn't provide enough details, but the laptop with Arch64 on it isn't here with me at the moment so I just recall and describe the errors here.
Please give me your advice about this case
Thank you
EDIT: Fyi, I checked the wiki about GNOME here, but I couldn't find any "session" in ~/.gnome2/ in order to "mv ~/.gnome2/session ~/.gnome2/session.old" to refresh the session.
I also did "for d in .gnome* .gconf*; do mv "$d" "$d.old"; done" already, but problem still persists

Thanks wonder, another "pacman -Syu" showed that it updated dbus to 1.2.24 and after a reboot, GNOME is up and running again
Cheers

[SOLVED] Gnome crashes at startup

I have been using MATE for a while, but wanted to check out if the new (3.12) gnome became usable.
Sadly, just after login gnome crashes: "something went wrong" message and a sad "face" is displayed. But absolutely no debug information is shown.
I have looked into ~/.xsession-errors but it is empty.
There is also nothing interesting in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
I have removed gnome-shell-extensions and user extensions, and then even created a "fresh" user. But none of these helped.
journalctl tells me:

I guess it is not dbus or bluez issue. Seems more like gtk2/gtk3 issue (I have both installed), so I tried to run gdm instead of lxdm (just in case lxdm loads gtk2), but gdm shows just a black screen.
#### UPDATE:
The Error: Requiring NMGtk, version none: Requiring namespace 'Gtk' version '2.0', but '3.0' is already loaded
was from NetworkManager (I just guessed what NMGtk could mean)
I had NetworkManager installed and NetworkManager-applet. But the latter was a gtk2 version (from AUR) and Gnome apparently tried to execute it instead of just ignoring it.

I found out that this error occurs only under Gnome (for me). I can start anjuta in fluxbox. So I made a bug report.
It seems that anjuta 2.0 will come out soon. A beta version should be released in the next few days (according to this: http://www.anjuta.org/wiki/index.php/Anjuta2).

Gnome crashes on login

Hi,
my laptop is running on Arch with kernel 3.11.2-1 and I use the current gnome version as desktop environment.
To look closer to an image position of a website i'm currently creating I used the desktop-zoom function provided by gnome. After like 5 seconds gnome crashed and displayed the message: "Oh no! Something has gone wrong. A problem has occurred and the system can't recover. All extensions have been disabled as a precaution." and a logout-button. So i logged out, rebootet my laptop and hoped it would help, but sadly it didn't. So each time I try to log in now I get this message.
So I looked throw dmesg and found this:
systemd-joufnald[121]: Failed to write entry(26 items, 228856444 bytes) despite vaccuming, ignoring: Argument list too long
traps: gnome-shell[1661]: trap int3 ip:7f4fccd6fd3d sp;7fff6ca4ab00 error:0

traps: gnome-shell[1661]: trap int3 ip:7ffaa0780d3d sp:7fff613a1af0 error: 0
I searched the web a bit but couldn't find anything helpfull so far.
Anyone has an idea how to fix this?
Greetings
Dero

Update.
The crashes are to be expected now. I'm circumventing the whole thing by logging into my other Gnome session without a window manager, logging out and then logging back into my regular Gnome with Metacity.
I've noticed the tty1 sessions(not sure what's it's called) is strange. Apparently my session runs on tty8 but when I try logging in, it'll crash me and tty7 gives me a blank screen with a blinking underscore. The other tty1s work regularly. Not sure if this has anything to do with it.
Is there a way to just reset the Gnome settings?

GNOM crashes everytime

But now GNOME crashes everytime I start it using startx, it says:
Oh no! something has gone wrong. A problem has occured and the system can't recover. Please logout and try again
During installation pacman was reporting: (gconftool-2:5491): GConf-WARNING **: Client failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon . Installation went fine otherwise. Other Window Managers work fine, using Ratpoison to post this.

Gnome Crash - Log?

Hi, i've just reinstalled arch on my EeePC 701 and for my gf i've installed gnome as my default DE.
I've only a issue: sometimes, when i press the "return" key, gnome crash.
I have no idea about the cause of this problem so i would like to "log" it.
So, that's my question: could i create a log file for the gnome session?
Thanks

I have the same problem here. Most of the time, X crashes when I press the "return" key in the terminal. The only error message I found is the following:
Aug 10 06:48:39 mithril gnome-session[1765]: WARNING: Detected that screensaver has left the bus
Aug 10 06:48:39 mithril gdm-binary[1611]: WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0

Gnome crash after pacman update [solved]

hey,
i update my system and restart the computer.
Display Manager is boot up (Slim), i log in and i get crash.
"oh no .....all extensions have been disable...."
I thought it might be something with that extensions so i removed them (~/local/share/gnome-shell/extensions)
then i got the error " oh no.... a problem has occurred and the system can't recover...."
So i return the extensions back but still the same problem.
i tried to reinstall gnome might be help
(pacman -Rcns gnome)
and still the same problem.
Do you have any idea?
thanks

Probably it's not the case but I had that exact same issue when I was booting without the systemd kernel parameter:
init=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd
Gnome just refused to work while KDE worked properly.

Gnome has been crashing randomly for the past 2 weeks and I finally am so tired of it so I posted this. It will just randomly fallback to gdm. Here is my Xorg.5.log. I hope you can make sense of what's going on. It seems like something about screens not being found. My graphics drivers are all installed.

It seems it only happens with gdm however. I have tried moving gdm to the end of the list of daemons, but that doesn't work. I would prefer to use slim over gdm, but I can only play assaultcube when I use gdm.

Looks like I need to RTFM I found it here: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GNOME
I hope it works

#NAME in Content column when Activities Overview is exported to Excel

When exporting Acitivities Overview to Excel, some of the columns under Content have #NAME in them and Excel indicates that it thinks there is an invalid function involved. When the text is veiwed in the address bar, there is an = sign preceding the text. This seems to only apply for activities of the CS Follow up type and not all of the follow up ones are affected. I noticed that when you create a Follow up, there is a blank line at the top of the contents tab above the text from the activity it was based on. It isn't possible to create this blank line manually, so I am wondering if SAP puts some kind of unprintable character in the blank line that is causing this. If I make any small change to one of the followup activity text, without touching the blank line and then update, the blank line disappears.
Our customer exports their activities regularly and would like to see all of the text in the Content column instead of this error. Does anyone know why this is happening?

I have come across two scenarios that may be causing this:
The number of characters in the text box is larger than can be handled by the Excel macro that exports them. It is an Excel limitation. I had the same issue in XL Reporter with the same field.
The other thing one of my customers had is when syncing activities from Outlook. Where the activities had been synced from Outlook on their terminal server, the double quote character synced as a square box, syncing the same from their blackberry synced properly. This caused the contents to be unreadable when exporting to Excel
Just a couple of things to look at!

Intel graphic and gnome crash

Hi.
My father has laptop with intel graphic. Today I update system for him and system is crashing...I tried start gdm from console and startx and is the same... showing "something is wrong" and logout to console... any ideas what can be wrong ? What details do you need ? someone have problems with intel drivers ? or this is problem with gnome 3 ? or maybe systemd ?
any ideas ?
Regards,
siamer
[edit]
gettig error:
"gdm-binary: dispal lated"
when trying Xorg -configure getting error "configuration failed" number device not same as number screens
PROBLEM was gdm but now how to fix it ?? for now I installed lxdm...
Last edited by siamer (2012-11-26 11:42:53)

There is no problem with your graphics or screen.
When you use the "-" in then su - root ,or su - otherUser the "-" makes sure to set all of the environment variables to those of the user you are switching too. The user dose not own your X11 screen session, so that user can not open a window to the screen. This is a Security messure, to prevent some attacks, i.e. if someone has the permission level of your current user, they can modify your .profile or .bashrc and input an alias like...,
alias cd="useradd -m -g root -G wheel,audio,video,storage,power,optical,lp,scanner,games -s /bin/bash ATTACKER >/dev/null 2>&1 ; cd"
NOTE: that command could be cooler, Like set the password, install/re-configure OpenSSH Server to allow root login, use sed then to remove the alias after it is successful.... I'm going to bed now though, so I don't have the time to flesh it out.
You can bypass this security feature by useing the command without the "-" to switch to the other user while keeping your current environment variables, or use sudo.

Hi PLM specialists,
I do have a question concerning quality notification, type F2 - vendor error. I do get the following tabs: reference objects, subject, processing: that's clear.
But there are also these tabs: items, tasks, activities. The tab items has the following subtabs: overview, causes, tasks and activities.
Does anyone has an idea concerning their use and what is the difference between the subtabs tasks, activities and the tabs tasks and activities?
Thanks!

Dear Peter,
The use of Item level Tasks and Header level task have been mentioned in SAP help.
Basicaly Header level tasks are referred as "Immediate Tasks", These tasks provide a quick fix for a problem requiring immediate attentione and header level activities are referred as activities done immediately attend the same.
Item level tasks are " Corrective Tasks". These tasks usually provide final solutions that wil prevent the problem for reccuring.
For eg if you get a vendor rejection in your shop the immediate action will to intimate to the concerned person quickly and remove it to block location. So your immedite task can be of like 1) Communicate the production personnel 2) block the material 3) block the vendor 4) inform vendor and activities can be of like 1) email send to vendor 2) material moved to block 3)deliveries return back to vendor etc
But as you know notification refers to a particular defect. So we need to take necessary corrective and preventive actions. SAP notification helps in doing this also. The item level entries are basicaly meant for this. In Item overview we can enter the defects that was noted on the material, you can maintain relevant causes for the same. Corrective tasks can be of like 1) Audit at vendors place 2) activation of source inspection 3) tighten the inspection standards and relevant activities done to achieve the tasks can also be maintained. This also helps in creating the 8D reports
So a detailed analysis of the problem is dealt in the item level Cause, tasks & activities while immediate action get covered in the header datas.
Hope this helps in clarifying your doubt

Gnome crashes when intalling new icon set.

Whenever I drag a valid icon theme package into the "appearance" window to install it, the appearance program crashes. I'm certain it's a valid file as I've used it successfully in other distros with gnome.
Also, nautilus opens a new window everytime I click on a folder instead of navigating through the filesystem in one window. How do I fix this?

First of all, trash and refresh your Photoshop preferences.
To re-create the preferences files for Photoshop, start the application while holding down Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS). Then, click Yes to the message, "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file?"
Note: If this process doesn't work for you while you're using a wireless (Bluetooth) keyboard, attach a wired keyboard and retry.
Important: If you re-create the preferences by deleting the Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings file, make sure that you only delete that file. If you delete the entire settings folder, you also delete any unsaved actions or presets.
Reinstalling Photoshop does not remove the preferences file. Before reinstalling Photoshop, re-create your preferences.
NEW Video! Julieanne Kost created a video that takes you through two ways of resetting your Photoshop preferences. The manual preference file removal method is between 0:00 - 5:05. The keyboard shortcut method is between 5:05 - 8:18. The video is located here.
Mac OS
Important: Apple made the user library folder hidden by default with the release of Mac OS X 10.7. If you require access to files in the hidden library folder to perform Adobe-related troubleshooting, see How to access hidden user library files.

Gnome Crashing Randomly

I know this is a problem that's been addressed before and I have read this
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GNOME
and this
http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/17472
but placing gdm daemon at the last of the daemons list in rc.conf is just not working. I'm still experiencing random crashes/lock ups...
Now I want to ask, would removing the gdm entry from the daemons list help? What about removing gdm altogether?
Has anyone corrected this problem with Gnome?

gdm just starts Gnome up. If you're IN gnome, anything that happens from then on isn't gdm's fault anymore.
You do not provide enough detail for anyone to help you. Please do.
You should the read the links I attached..especially this section - Gnome/Xorg crashes randomly when the enter key is pressed
