[SOLVED] Gnome Shell doesn't search through recently used items

A while back I ran chattir +i on ~/.local/share/recently-used.xbel because of a bug that gnome shell had where it would crash while searching for recently used items. Since I've now updated to 3.4.1, I figured the bug might have been fixed, so I ran chattr -i to allow writing to the file again. The file has since filled up with my recently used items, but they don't seem to appear in the gnome shell search.
Sorry if this is a bit brief, but I'm not sure what other information to give on this problem.

I believe this was removed with 3.4.
Here is the bug report: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670150
And here is the gnome-shell commit: http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-shell … 8c68782d54

Gnome-shell doesn't remember favorite application

Hi all,
since some time gnome-shell doesn't remember the favourite application. When I'm pressing the super-key and start typing for example "F", it should select Firefox immediately, but it's always searching in the standard list instead. I already googled it, but i couldn't find anything to help me. Any ideas?
kernel: 2.6.38-ARCH
gnome-shell: 3.0.2-1
thanks!

Hmm, since yesterday I'm fumbling around with those settings too. It seems this is not settings related at all (at least not to old package settings), but rather to nautilus' behavior. Just a few minutes ago I've set "view all hidden files" to true in it's settings. It instantly crashed. After a reboot gnome-shell is gone. This is really annoying.
Also there is no taskbar, no menu bar, no nothing in fallback mode!... Is this even fallback mode?
Trying to launch gnome-shell from terminal then gives:

[Solved] Nautilus bookmarks - Gnome Shell Doesn't Start

Hi there.
I've tried to search and have been scratching my head by what probably has a really simple solution but I have not found it so far.
I've made a fresh install of Arch, system is up to date, with Gnome 3 (shell and whatnot).
I've set my locale in /etc/rc.conf to pt_BR and have properly generated locales.
$ locale -a
C
en_US
en_US.iso88591
en_US.utf8
POSIX
pt_BR
pt_BR.iso88591
pt_BR.utf8
Gnome is localized to pt_BR
Everything is fine and dandy except for a really annoying thing.
xdg-user-dirs-update
Creates folders with incorrect characters when viewed on Nautilus (but appear correct on Nautilus sidebar).
I tried editing the .config/user-dirs.dirs file with gedit, it showed the wrong characters but allowed me to write the correct ones. Saved it and ran xdg-user-dis-update, the output is borked characters. Tried editing it in nano, same results.
I've managed to manually delete and create the correct folders using
xdg-user-dirs-update --set MUSIC /home/$USER/Foldername
but, while it displays properly on nautilus when navigating, it doesn't display properly on the sidebar.
I'm linking to a screenshot so it is easier to understand. The music folder should read "Músicas". You can see I'm inside the Videos folder but the sidebar name doesn't match the folder name.

Any ideas?
EDIT: After this post, I rebooted and gnome shell would no longer start - at all. I would get it to log in and display the wallpaper but that was it. I could get into xfce4 from gdm so I knew the issue was with gnome.
Nonetheless, I went ahead and did yet another reinstall (I always assume I borked a package or hard-to-find-configuration).
Feeling frustated but being a tad wiser I noticed a weird behavior on ~/.xsessionerror
[Error initializing libicu support]
This went on forever until I aborted the command.
Changing my locale on my rc.conf from pt_BR to en_US fixed gnome-shell. I was once again able to boot into it without a problem. I then, from within gnome, choose portuguese as the default locale (gnome-control-panel, not rc.conf). This fixed the Nautilus issue above and has not stopped gnome-shell from working. I don't know *how* they implement their localization but heck, it works.
Solved and maybe it might help anyone with the same issue.

[SOLVED] Gnome-Shell does not return any application on search

Hi.
When I search for applications in Activities in gnome-shell, no applications are returned. I can still go to the Applications tab, where all applications are visible. In the .xsession-error log I find this error

Well only to see if it is related to zeitgeist, I've removed (deinstalled) all zeitgeist related libs and apps:
libzeitgeist
gnome-shell-extension-zeitgeist
libqzeitgeist
zeitgeist
gnome-activity-journal
zeitgeist-datahub
zeitgeist-extensions
I still get the same error mentioned above:

[SOLVED] gnome-shell-extension-user-theme doesn't work.

gnome-tweak-tool shows that I have the gnome-shell-extension-user-theme extension installed and I can turn it on and off, but it has no effect. I still can't choose a theme. The exclamation mark next to the drop down selector is still active when the extension is on. Any idea what might be wrong?

Well yea I agree, but atm it's not going to happen. Anyway, since GS won't work with Catalyst for now I resorted to DWM and try to avoid all the gconf/dconf stuff. Works quite well

[SOLVED] Gnome-Shell: Alt+F2 and PATH

Hallo everybody,
I have added $HOME/bin to my PATH with
export PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"
in my .bashrc.
This works fine with the terminal, but Gnome-Shell's Alt+F2 doesn't find the scripts in ~/bin.
How can I add ~/bin to the PATH of Alt+F2?
Thank you.

lunyx,
Welcome to Arch. If you consider this thread solved, go ahead and edit your first post and add [SOLVED] to the beginning of the thread title. It helps those searching for solutions. The moderators don't do that, because we don't really know when members regard things as solved.
Thanks.

[Solved] Gnome-shell text turned to rectangles after botched upgrade

Hi all,
I've run into a problem that I just can't solve, so I was wondering if somebody with a lot of expertise could help out. My system has a couple of stability issues; it freezes up every few days, and I have to make a hard reboot (I think it's related to the video card, but I haven't had the funds to go get a better one yet). The last time it froze was during a pacman upgrade, and I had to reboot. At the new boot, after logging in, all of the gnome-shell letters turned to rectangles (see screenshot), and I had a bunch of other errors. I ran another upgrade Sync with pacman and rebooted; that took care of the errors, but the font problems still remained. The interesting thing is that the gdm window has no problems, I can see the icons on the top right just fine, and the date renders perfectly. It's only when I log in when the blocks occur, and they only occur on gnome-shell panel text (and on everything under Activities).
I have a 32-bit system that's fully migrated to systemd with open source radeon drivers. Here's some output of journalctl for the current boot, with stuff unrelated to the gnome-shell display removed (e.g. NetworkManager, UFW, etc). However, I didn't find any new errors compared to logs from before the upgrade.

Nov 17 12:27:33 Whitcomb systemd-logind[229]: Removed session 1.
I tried using gnome-tweak tool to fiddle around with the fonts, but that didn't help, none of the fonts would render correctly. Cantarell, which I'm assuming is the gnome-shell font, is still in /etc/fonts/conf.avail, so I don't think that the font file itself went missing. I made the fontconfig update a while ago, and that didn't cause any problems.
I also heard that there were problems with xorg-server, so I downgraded xorg-server, pixman, and cairo to their previous versions, but that didn't help either. EDIT: I've also done a pacman -Syyf gnome-shell to try and reinstall gnome-shell. That also didn't work.
I've run out of things to try. If someone else was more familiar with the workings of gnome-shell fonts, or had a better idea of how to debug, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you.
UPDATE: I found that /etc/fonts/conf.avail/31-cantarell.conf existed, but was empty. After doing a pacman -Syyf cantarell-fonts, they went right back to normal!

Problem disappeared.
I'm not sure, but i think installing xf86-video-modesetting helped to fix this issue.
I had an error messages in /var/log/Xorg.0.log like this:

GNOME shell crashes when searching

Hello everyone this is my first post
My problem is when in the GNOME shell using the search function every time I type more than 2 letters it crashes
The last thing I did was install a bunch of themes
I have a very similar problem to https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 4#p1007204 I can't seem to find a solution it's a very strange problem

Not certain if you are having the same problem I was but mine was caused by running a kernel with bfq switched on, in noop or cfq mode everything runs fine for me.

[Solved] Gnome-Shell and separating programs in the program switcher

Hi,
I would like to treat different instances of Emacs as different programs in Super-Tab program switcher in Gnome-Shell (I run mail and music in different instances).
In the overview they show as different programs via .desktop files. But with Super-Tab they always collapse into one program (always with the normal Emacs icon).
Any tips on how to tell gnome that different instances of some program is are to be considered different applications?
Here's an example of a desktop file that I use to start a "specialized" Emacs instance.
#!/usr/bin/env xdg-open
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=EMMS
GenericName=Music Player
GenericName[es]=Reproductor de música
Comment=The Emacs Multimedia System.
Exec=emacsclient -s emms -ca '' --eval "(progn (setq x-resource-class \"EMMS\") (emms-smart-browse) )" -F '((title . "EMMS") (icon-type . "/home/rasmus/.local/share/icons/emms.png"))'
Icon=emms
Terminal=false
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
Categories=AudioVideo;Player;Audio;

Thanks. Now, I'm calling (p-wm_class "EMMS") from my emms.desktop file now. There's also text under the icon now. Thanks a lot
Here's the defun:
(defun p-wm_class (&optional new-class)
"Return the WM_CLASS for the current window name.
If NEW-CLASS is a string or list of strings, set a new WM_CLASS.
If NEW-CLASS is non-nil remove Emacs from WM_CLASS and
WM_CLASS has more than one value."
(let ((old-class
(with-temp-buffer
(save-excursion
(call-process-shell-command
(format "xprop -name %s -f WM_CLASS 8s"
x-resource-class)
nil t))

(search-forward "=" (line-end-position))
(split-string-and-unquote
(buffer-substring (point)

;; anyway don't know how to set more than one value...
(new-class-string (cond ((and (listp new-class)
(cl-every 'stringp new-class))

new-class))))
(or

[SOLVED]Gnome-shell won't start

Hello. I cant start Gnome-shell and it force to Fallback. In addition to, in the Fallback mode, i can't change any parameters of gnome.
get this message when run the command:
gnome-shell --replace
(gnome-shell:18571): Gdk-WARNING **: The program 'gnome-shell' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)'.
(Details: serial 132 error_code 1 request_code 139 minor_code 66)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment
variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
I have ATI Graphic card and installed Catalyst 12.4
How can i fix it?

[SOLVED] GNOME: Fullscreen windows are click-through

When I put an application on fullscreen, for example a Flash video, HTML5 video or a game, and try to click anywhere on it, it'll click through the application, on the app that's behind it. I have found the workaround to put it on its own workspace, although sometimes the rightclick gets triggered from the background when I do this. (very inconsistent, and sometimes it gets triggered on left click as well)
I do not have issues when running any of these applications as windowed. I am running GNOME 30.14.2. Does anyone know of a fix for this?
Thanks in advance!

Hi, I have the same problem in Gnome 3.14 and now 3.16. Window focus is set to sloppy, but (left) clicking in fullscreen apps clicks through, resulting in a right click popup or apps behind the fullscreen app being pushed to the top, as Binero experienced. I tried changing to all the window focus modes, and setting it to 'click' works best, but not completely. I use 2 monitors, and with 'click' if I select a window on the other screen and then click on the fullscreen app on the first screen, it clicks through again, so not a working solution.
In any case, using 'sloppy/mouse' window select mode is essential for me, so using 'click' would be a regression for my workflow, even if it worked.
I really hope there's a solution to this, as it really affects the use of my PC. Not sure if this is an Arch bug, since I've not experienced in Fedora w. Gnome-Shell (though this is with Gnome 3.10, have to try a newer Fedora release).

[SOLVED] Gnome Shell 3.4.1: Unable to prevent dynamic workspaces

I am trying to turn off dynamic workspaces and set a permanent number (6) as is supposedly possible since 3.4.
Using dconf, I turn the following setting to 'false':
/org/gnome/shell/overrides/dynamic-workspaces
and enter '6' in to the following setting:
/org/gnome/desktop/wm/preferences/num-workspaces
The '6' is then immediately changed back to however many workspaces the 'dynamic' setting has created at the moment.
Bizarrely, 'overriding' effect does not occur if I change the number when 'dynamic-workspaces' is set to true. Whenever it is set to false, Gnome changes the 'num-workspaces' setting to reflect current realities.
Regardless of settings, the way it works is still 'dynamic' [grumble]worst.use.of.that.word.ever....[/grumble]
Is this a bug? Or am I just not getting it right?
(As a side note, the frippery static extension thing is currently uninstallable)
EDIT: If I try to set the number of workspaces far above what the current number is, I can see the number going down one-by-one. This would seem to indicate that the window manager is killing them off one after the other, as they aren't occupied. In other words, it's not that the new value is rejected out of hand. It's just that the WM still works dynamically.

Look for some logs on /var/log, maybe file /var/log/errors have something?
Keyboard and mouse stops, but what about rest of system? Have you seen something works on that time? Maybe flash animation or something? Maybe you was watching movie or listening to music at this time?
I just opened the wireless connection, less than two seconds the gnome-shell died, the keyboard and mouse stoped either;
but i can see that key CapsLk's LED turns on or off in loops.
