Try changing theme to default 'Adwaita'.

hi maxi
That's odd. I had those very same issues in another distro (Solydx) with xfce tracking SID a couple weeks past. Changing theme fixed it for me.
I'll be interested to see if you find a fix..
Good Luck with it.
I held back libgtk-3-0 in my LMDE GnomeShell/Cinnamon install and all is fine.

I have apparmor popups every time I login. I started some time ago when I pointed to the Jessie repos. It doesn't seem to affect functionality, its only a little annoying. I found this in /var/log/kern.log:
Seems similar to this bug: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1117416
Does anyone have a workaround?

I tried to roll back to libgtk-3-0_3.4.2-6_i386.deb libgtk-3-common_3.4.2-6_all.deb but that made no difference and left me with some broken packages. Makes matters worse.GeneC wrote:hi maxi

False alarm. I forgot there was a kernel upgrade, and hadn't run sgfxi. Dadblammit.mockturtl wrote:I can confirm [url=http://pastebin.com/1DYviBbh]these updates[/url] crash Cinnamon, even with libgtk-3-0 held. It runs fallback mode, after a massive delay (several minutes!).
Cinnamon is OK with libgtk-3-0 held.
Re: Upgrade Warnings: LMDE tracking TESTING [13-06-13]
New kernel now automounts external disks in /media/username/disklabel instead of /media/disklabel. Seems to be a udisks2 feature. Quite annoying because it breaks my backup script for backing up to a external drive that need to be run by different users on different computers with different kernel versions and different distros and different udisks versions via sudo. You can circumvent the feature bij creating a /etc/udev/rules.d/99-udisks2.rules file and adding:
Then issue:
or just restart the computer.
Code: Select all
ENV{ID_FS_USAGE}=="filesystem", ENV{UDISKS_FILESYSTEM_SHARED}="1"
Code: Select all
sudo udevadm control --reload

Uuh, thanks for that info! I was not aware of that but it might prove very useful to know...maxibuntu wrote:New kernel now automounts external disks in /media/username/disklabel instead of /media/disklabel.
Don't you think it would be more comfortable and probably even more robust to determine the actual mount point within your script?Seems to be a udisks2 feature.

Like, if you search for a specific disk label:
Code: Select all
myLabel=foo # change that
myPartition=/dev$(ls -l /dev/disk/by-label/"$myLabel" | grep -o '/[^/]*$')
myMountPoint=$(df -P $myPartition | awk '/^\// {print $NF}')

Yes that would surely be better. But for now the quick fix will do. Thanx for your code, I will probably use it later.michelsberg wrote:Don't you think it would be more comfortable and probably even more robust to determine the actual mount point within your script?

This is indeed a theme issue, more specifically: the Mint themes crash GNOME applications.maxibuntu wrote:I already tried that.

Try changing theme to default 'Adwaita'.
When in Xfce, from Xfce Settings > Appearence > Style, if you choose Mint-Z or Mint-X most if not all GNOME apps will crash.
When in GNOME, from Advanced Settings > Theme > GTK+ Theme, if you choose Mint-Z or Mint-X most if not all GNOME apps will crash.
In GNOME you will be unable to fix it from Advanced Settings because it will segfault. From any other desktop you can start gnome-tweak-tool from the terminal and change the theme.

I hadn't thought of that... (Using Gnome-Tweak-Tool from another desktop. I tried it from XFCE, and yes, it worked.. thanks).
For others who do not have another desktop installed, and can get to a command line.
RUN (to change to 'Adwaita" theme) =
Code: Select all
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'Adwaita'
Code: Select all
gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme
Greybird theme also works for me in Gnome-Shell.
can't install googleearth package on LMDE x64
Hi!
I see a problem with 64-bit googleearth package offered by http://packages.linuxmint.com repository for Linux Mint Debian Edition x64.
The system uses the following sources (which show it tracks Debian Testing):
The installation of googleearth package is unsuccessful:
After some searching I've found the following thread that has a solution to that issue:

The fix is simple: in DEBIAN/control file of the googleearth package remove the 32-bit libraries (ia32-libs*) from the Depends line as they are not needed for multiarch.

Software Sources GUI (software-properties-gtk) won't start
On a LMDE (with Cinnamon) x64 that tracks Debian Testing (jessie) I noticed that Update Manager gives nothing when you do Edit > Software Sources.
The same is in Software Manager and in Synaptic Package Manager when you do Settings > Repositories.
It's actually /usr/bin/software-properties-gtk that can't start:
It seems this is [url=http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=707768]Debian bug 707768[/url] which says the issue is caused by aptdaemon actually.
Has anyone seen this already?

Today's update of apache broke my icinga (nagios) webpage. It doesn't show the pngs/gifs. See attachement.
EDIT: Fixed with today's (04/08) icinga updates.

bluez package cannot updated on a system using systemd. systemctl said the service cannot started since the command on update.rc.d is not available on systemd. it could solved by revert ro sysvinit and run 'sudo dpkg -configure -a' after reboot.
Re: Upgrade Warnings: LMDE tracking TESTING [13-06-13]
today i got a warn that upgrade gjs will uninstall cinnamon and nemo.
Re: Upgrade Warnings: LMDE tracking TESTING [12-08-13]
I ended up with uninstall cinnamon and it's related package then use xfce. AFAIK new cinnamon will be less dependent from gnome and mint team is currently work hard for it. the problem is that we never know when it will be released. it could take several weeks or even months. until that time we're forced to hold gjs or uninstall cinnamon for a while.
btw, newer gjs version seems compatible on current cinnamon since debian team already have new cinnamon in their unstable repo. we might only need to change cinnamon and nemo's dependencies to libgjs0c.
