[SOLVED] Cinnamon appearance settings not working.

I have a strange problem concerning Cinnamon 2.2.0-1 from [community-testing], in which some appearance settings simply do not work. Specifically, I can't change icons or gtk theme, and making any change in cinnamon-settings has no effect whatsoever on the system. I've tried changing the appearance with lxappearance to some success - now the panel and some Gnome3 applications show the selected theme and icons, but the rest of the applications keep the old appearance settings. I have no .gtkrc files in my home folder and I start Cinnamon from LightDM.
This is the output from running cinnamon-settings from a terminal:

Confirming @Arachnid92's problem.
I've got a whole raft of problems with the latest update, which I've listed here.
EDIT: I'm going to wait until these two are updated before I start reporting bugs, purely because it may just be that not all the updates have been pushed at the same time.

  • [SOLVED] GRUB DEFAULT settings not working

    Hi to everyone,
    after a system update the default settings for grub is not working. It still booting automatically to first occurrence...
    This is what grub-customizer sees:

    Hi,
    Check /boot/grub/grub.cfg, and in your case you should set:
    set default="4"
    Take in mind it's zero-based.
    Beware, you should be doing this modifying /etc/default/grub and rebuilding your config file with grub-mkconfig; see the wiki for more details on how to do it.

    Try deleting com.apple.dock.plist from the preference folder located in your user Library.
    You can open the hidden library in Finder's menubar,  Finder > Go > hold the option key down > select Library.
    Edit: you'll have to add back program icons to the dock that you moved there.

  • Compression settings not working on Premiere Pro CC

    I am a freelance editor working for a satellite delivery company. They have specific settings they require for their uplink signals. These setting have worked great on CS5, CS6 and CC2014. However the company is now using CC and these settings create HUGE pixels and the file is unusable. Why do the same settings not work on CC?

  • Xy graph active plot property settings not working

    I set the xy graph plot properties manually and they appear to work. However, when I try to set them in the program they revert to the manual settings. What's going on?

    I went to the graph and made plot legend visible and extended it from one plot to 3. That's all I did. Now it appears to be working properly. It's been a long while since I had to get really fancy with a graph but I don't remember having to do this. My memories of  graph properties were that they were a little more dynamic.

  • File too large - attachment settings not working

    Hi there
    We are having problems with attaching files in IMS 5.2 & wondered if anybody can help.
    Our outgoing mail message max size is set to 50MB (I know about the extra 33% space required for encoding) and yet we still cannot attach files to emails that are greater than 5MB.
    Does anyone have any idea why this is not working?
    Anytime we try to send a 7 or 8 MB file an error "File too large "comes up right away
    The settings in the messaging server console is set to 50MB. This is under the HTTP service
    There was a previous post but the solution did not solve my problem.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    There are separate settings for webmail attaqchments. Please check documentation at:
    http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6020-10/cfgutil.htm
    and look at:
    service.http.maxmessagesize
    and
    service.http.maxpostsize
    these both default to 5 megs.
    You have to restart the webmail daemon to make a change take effect.

  • Lightroom paste settings not working

    I have noticed this problem in every edition of LR4. About 50% of the time right-click paste settings in develop module does not appear work.Typically this will happen when I have quickly selected a new image in the filmstrip and tried to paste settings while the image is still loading, or immediately after loading. I have noticed the following behaviour when trying to use right-click paste settings:
    The lightroom taskbar processes to show that a task is working
    Paste settings appears a new event in the history panel
    The main image preview shows no change whatsoever
    This happens regardless of what kind of settings are being pasted
    Keyboard shortcut for paste settings work every time no problem
    Using the 'Previous' button works fine
    Here's the thing: when I hover the mouse over the paste settings event in the history panel, the image navigator thumbnail shows the image with the settings applied even though the main image appears not to have made any changes. I can click back one stage in the history and then click on the paste settings event and the main image updates. So for some reason, right-click paste settings is working but just not showing up on the main image. Any idea why, and how can this be fixed?
    My settings: intel quad core, 8gb ram, Win7, brand new install (only lightroom 4.3 and windows running), cleared and replaced image previews.
    [For what its worth, this and the many many other bugs in LR4 compared to the excellent LR3 make me wish I had never bought it - disappointing QC from Adobe in this product.]

    You should install 4.4.1 update before anything else.

  • N8 Camera Settings not working

    When i go to Camera Settings (either by turning Camera on and going to Settings from Options or by Settings in the Main Menu) the Home Screen or the Menu Screen appears.
    Plz resolve this issue as i can not be able to change my camera settings at all.
    P.S. Settings is working in Video Mode but i m having issues only in Camera mode

    There was discussion about a similar problem on the BetaLabs site (about a N8 Camera beta version).
    If you can access Camera settings in video mode then you could tap "Restore camera settings" there.
    After that Settings should work from image mode too.
    (All Camera settings are set to defaults then so redo any changes if you were not using the default values.)

  • [SOLVED] Internal Speaker (pcsp) not working

    UPDATE: solved muting all Analog Loopback channels in alsamixer
    Hi everybody,
    i'm tuning the lucky arch installation on a DELL Studio XPS 13. No troubles in video card configuration, neither in wireless drivers, but i'm getting big problems with audio playback. I mean every kind of audio playback.
    I firstly read out the docs and topics around here but couldn't find a solution. Alsaconf says ok, alsamixer channels activated and configuration stored, but audio playing software (kde sounds, juk, amarok, vlc,  flashplugin) is not producing any sound. As these softwares are not complaining about audio matters, and the multimedia module in Kde Control is describing  this only as not working, i suppose the cause must be pcsp (which i disabled rc.conf).

    snd-pcsp and pcspkr both claim the same hardware and are both responsible for making your machine "beep" - i disabled both of them. you don't need them for your audio-playback. looking for issues of your sound-output by suspecting snd-pcsp or pcspkr is a dead end.
    getting sound can sometimes be an adventure, i had that problem before. but often it just turns out to be some well hidden mute switch in alsamixer or some volume settings. it might be a problem with kde4's sound server. i don't use kde4 on a regular basis, so i can't help too much with that (back when i used kde3 i had to configure aRts but kde4 discontinued aRts in favor of phonon).
    absolutly needed quotation as in the end it has been discovered that in-activating Analog Loopback channels in alsamixer solved the problem
    i'm not sure this was the unique step in order to get alsa working (i read and followed suggentions from many many forums and wikis) but finally i found a post where the problem for a sound blaster owner was solved disabling the iec958 channel. That was the input for a deeper research in alsamixer configuration.
    Thank you very much. keep enjoyng archlinux.

  • [SOLVED] DPMS screen off not working with xorg 1.16.0, gnome 3

    After the update of xorg into 1.16.0-2, screen is not turned off by DPMS in GNOME.
    I also tried an manual command:
    $ xset dpms force off
    but it's not working.
    In other WM, this command is working.
    With xorg 1.15.2 and gnome 3, there is not this problem.
    When I entered the command, the screen turned off for a couple of seconds and turned back on.

  • Debayer Settings not Working??

    I've had a thread going over on RedUser here: http://www.reduser.net/forum/showthread.php?72431-Premiere-Media-Encoder-Render-Tests-Matr ox-CompressHD-Card-Results
    Basically in the source settings for any .r3d file in Premiere, you can choose High, Medium, or Low for debayer.  I've run tests using High vs Low, and the encode times are exactly the same.  I'm assuming something is wrong?!  If you use full vs any partial debayer in RedCineX, the full debayer always takes much longer to complete.
    Also, another user posted that he sees no quality difference between selecting High vs Low debayer in Premiere.
    Is this feature not working??

    As it turns out, the Debayer Detail setting in CS5.5 is a subtle sharpening control which has little/nothing to do with debayer resolution:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/3845231#3845143
    The debayer quality is handled automatically.
    This doesn't seem to be documented anywhere, just took me a few days to find (and still trying to find just how the automatic control works). Oh well, it's only been four months!

  • Motion tween- arrows not appearing, tween not working! please help?

    I select where I want my motion tween to be, ctrl-click and select 'create motion tween'. It appears blue, and does not come up with an error message but no arrows appear like in the video's and the motion tween has not worked. Any ideas why? Also, I opened up a file that already had a motion tween in it (made by somebody else) to test it. I selected the motion tween and clicked 'remove tween' and straight away clicked 'create motion tween' again- to put exactly the same motion back into it, but the same thing happens- the selected area appears blue but no motion tween. Then, if I select it again, the option is 'remove motion' not 'remove tween' as before. A little complicated and could really use some help! Thanks!

    Thanks very much for the help. Classic tween has worked, the arrows have appeared and the figure moves but the shapes do not move around their anchor points and go all over the place before suddenly appearin in the right position on the very last frame.This is a screenshot of what i see on the second to last frame:
    And this is the last frame:
    I made sure all the anchor points were in the right place beforehand, any ideas why the shapes wont move right?
    Thanks.

  • Snow Leopard: Display settings not working anymore. DO NOT LOCALIZE

    Hello,
    the following message was posted in the MacBook Pro Display forums and i was suggested to write it here:
    I purchased a MacBox Set and upgraded from Tiger on a MacBook Pro 15" (2007). I did a clean install. That was two weeks ago.
    Today i went into System Preferences>Displays (not my first time there) and a window oppened by itself saying that the display setting was about to be changed and maybe certain software would not be showed properly in a resolution below 800X600 (sorry, that's my translation. I use a Spanish SO).
    After that, the resolution changed to 640X480 and the Display panel became useless. It's impossible to set any other resolution and on the refresh settins apears that message: <<do not localize>>. Under the Resolutions Field appears <<<DO NOT LOCALIZE>>> as well.
    I tryed:
    * Repair disk Permissions
    * Reset PRAM
    * Reset PMU
    * I did a hardware test (the long one). No problems found.
    I was not able to use the system disks (the ones that came with my computer) because the image on the screen appears completly distorted and i am not able to navigate through the menus. I was able to use Hardware Test because the buttons where showed in the middle of the screen.
    I tryed to use the Snow Leopard DVD, but the part of the welcome window in wich the buttons are was out of the screen and i had no chance to click on them.
    I have temporarily fixed that using a ten days trial version of SwitchRes X. Everything works fine now, but the Display preferences panel from MacOs stays "in coma". So i guess it's not a hardware problem, but a Snow Leopard Problem. If in ten days i don't find a fix for that, i'm gonna be forced to buy the program, a really good software, i have to say, but a software i shoulnd't need.
    After been able to recover my original resolution via SwitchRes X, I checked the disk and it was ok. I repaired it anyway. Back to my desktop, i checked the permisions and everything was fine except for this message:
    "Advertencia: el archivo SUID “System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAgen t” se ha modificado y no se reparará."
    I got this message since the first time i checked permissions and its well know by other users. It is supposed to be normal.
    Anyway, it didn't worked.
    I'll appreciate any help. Thanks!

    "I was not able to use the system disks 'cos the image on the screen appears completly distorted and i am not able to navigate the menus."
    Never ran across that type of problem on Apple's message boards.
    "I have temporarily fixed that using a ten days trial version of SwitchRes X. Everything works fine now but the Display preferences panel from MacOs, wich stays "in coma"."
    In that case, are you now able to boot off your install DVD? If so, run the +"repair disk"+ option, when done boot back to desktop & run repair permissions.
    "So i guess it's not a hardware problem, but a Snow Leopard Problem."
    Post in the Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard Forums where the SL users hang out at.
