[Touch-packages] [Bug 1236749] Re: Gnome shell extensions disabled at every startup

2015-01-21 Thread Pietro Gagliardi (andlabs/pietro10) 
The problem with this bug is that it doesn't exhibit itself consistently
or predictably.

On my previous laptop's Ubuntu GNOME 14.10 setup, reboots worked fine
until some point (a month after installing?), at which point this
behavior started happening... but only on a clean reboot. If I killed
power to my laptop by force instead, extensions would stay. (This
probably further confirms the hypothesis in bug 1385572.) The previous
laptop was a Dell Precision M6400 with a Core 2 Duo CPU and Quadro FX
2700M graphics. I forget if I tried nVidia drivers or not.

So far, I have not seen this happen with clean reboots on my current
laptop. It is a Lenovo G60-45 with the following combined CPU/GPU: AMD
A6-6310 APU with AMD Radeon R4 Graphics. I mainly use the AMD drivers
due to freezing issues with mesa; I forget if this happened with mesa as
well or not. This is still with Ubuntu GNOME 14.10.

Bug description:
  Since gnome-shell 3.10, my extensions are disabled by default at every boot.
  I need to launch Tweak Tool to enable theme by hand every time.

  Both pre-installed extensions ( AlternateTab) and user-installed ones
  (top-icons)

  Step to reproduce :
  Enable an extension in Tweak Tool ( Alternate Tab for example)
  reboot computer,
  open Tweak Tool : Alternate tab is disabled.

  Running on Ubuntu 13.10
  GNOME Shell 3.10.0.1
  gnome-tweak-tool 3.10..0-0ubuntu1-saucy1

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1385572] Re: gnome-session not shutting down cleanly

2015-01-21 Thread Pietro Gagliardi (andlabs/pietro10) 
I don't know how much this comment would contribute to this bug but I
can at least confirm that the behavior described here is a possible
reason why this is going on, as judged by my comment to bug 1236749
here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-
shell/+bug/1236749/comments/77 Specifically, for me the bug only
occurred if I rebooted cleanly, but not if I forced the machine off.

Bug description:
  We have had reports going back to 13.10 that gnome-shell extensions
  are disabled after restart (LP: #1236749), I've only just managed to
  reproduce this and have discovered that gnome-session is not shutting
  down cleanly.

  Basically, X gets shutdown, which causes gnome-shell to abort,
  following this gnome-session tries to respawn gnome-shell which fails
  and due to this failure disables all shell extensions. I don't know
  enough about upstart to really understand what is going on but it
  appears this also affects unity and it just hasnt been noticed since
  there are probably no such side-effects happening there.

  Filing this against upstart since this is not reproducible when using
  systemd init, though it may well be a bug in gnome-session, but
  related to upstart user sessions.
