Re: Requiring GnomeDesktop, version none: Typelib file for namespace 'GnomeDesktop' (any version) not found

[Philipp Mohrenweiser <phiamo googlemail com>]

Hi

i just used the way described in  "Setting up gnome-shell to run on login" on https://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell

and

:~$ ps aux | grep shell

phiamo     550  0.0  0.0  10560  1060 pts/0    S+   17:28   0:00 grep --color=auto shell

phiamo   32040  0.0  0.2  75092 10268 ?        S    17:27   0:00 /usr/bin/python /opt/gnome-shell/install/bin/gnome-shell

phiamo   32047  3.8  1.3 838308 52404 ?        Sl   17:27   0:01 /opt/gnome-shell/install/bin/gnome-shell-real

phiamo   32115  0.0  0.1 179884  6480 ?        Sl   17:27   0:00 /opt/gnome-shell/install/libexec/gnome-shell-calendar-server

  tells me i am working with the right "installation"

anyways now if i try uning xrandr i get a full crash, if the extension is there why login i get an "oops something went wrong try again" thing and it cashed.

i cant really find a log about the crash so this might not be very helpful.

so i assume for the next days/weeks this wont be on a high prio.

So i will try playing around to get the feature i think about.

Cheers Philipp

It requires null-terminated array support from gjs (bug 634253). It has
never really worked, just I forgot having that patch applied to gjs and
left it in stable.
(Also, it requires bug 643620 + a fix to ClutterX11 depending on that
for actually applying the settings).

You should use "jhbuild run gnome-shell --replace", not plain
"gnome-shell --replace" (and no, you should not run it uninstalled).
Anyway those errors are expected and cause no harm.
