[Bug 868904] Re: Redshift fails to start with session if no external location provider is available
After resuming from screen lock or suspend, Redshift stops with "unable to find location via geoclue2" or something like that. When I run it again, it works until the next lock or suspend. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/868904 Title: Redshift fails to start with session if no external location provider is available To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/redshift/+bug/868904/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 868904] Re: Redshift fails to start with session if no external location provider is available
The only work around I found was to configure redshift with manual location, and to have a script launched buy my window manager (I use 'mate') which automatically configures the location in the ~/.config/redshift.conf file. Like this: https://gist.github.com/ygbourhis/53f1ef5c6cb4b70ba910 So with this, redshift starts even with no network and will use the last saved position (in fact works the way it should). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/868904 Title: Redshift fails to start with session if no external location provider is available To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/redshift/+bug/868904/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've just upgraded to 15.10 and experienced this, adding the stanza above fixed it. Below is /etc/geoclue/geoclue.conf from before I edited it - # Configuration file for Geoclue # Agent configuration options [agent] # Whitelist of desktop IDs (without .desktop part) of all agents we recognise, # separated by a ';'. whitelist=gnome-shell # WiFi source configuration options [wifi] # URL to the wifi geolocation service.

@inoki -- can you attach the contents of /etc/geoclue/geoclue.conf?? I have also had this problem since upgrading, and I think it's related to Geoclue's whitelisting. The redshift package should be editing /etc/geoclue/geoclue.conf to add a stanza like these: [redshift] allowed=true system=false users= [gtk-redshift] allowed=true system=false users= With this in /etc/geoclue/geoclue.conf, Redshift gets a location on startup and works correctly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/868904 Title: Redshift fails to start with session if no external location provider in available To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/redshift/+bug/868904/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
