Re: [SOLVED] Mint 19 Cinnamon. nemo-desktop segfault. Python problem.

To be fair though, there isn't much we can do without being in front of your PC [...] The way I see it it's not as much knowing all details as knowing the principle on which debugging is based. One could start with generic questions like "have you installed/removed anything lately?", &quo...

Re: Mint 19 Cinnamon. nemo-desktop segfault. Python problem.

Turns out it wasn't any fancy system library at fault. It was simply a Python3 module that had been installed as a dependency to sjcl which has no official package available (at least not for Mint 19). That faulty module is pycryptodome . But that's not all. After uninstalling that module and the as...

Re: Mint 19 Cinnamon. nemo-desktop segfault. Python problem.

To fix your system, you need to get the original correct versions for that system back into place, the ones made for bionic and bionic only. Thank you for the extensive reply. The version of that package is precisely the original one for Mint 19: 2.32.4-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 . It was already installed a...

I use what I want. It's the principle that matters: a crash, some details in a log.

[SOLVED] Mint 19 Cinnamon. nemo-desktop segfault. Python problem.

Chances are this won't get any (useful) answer but posting here nonetheless just in case. This morning after a reboot there were no icons on the desktop anymore. Looking around I found nemo-desktop was crashing with segmentation fault and there were core dumps in /var/lib/systemd/coredump/ around 10...

Re: How to reduce opacity of all of the windows/apps in the background?

OK, version 1.2.1 is up at the new Codeberg repository. GitLab are much too inept with their retarded web interface to be of any use. That place will remain simply as a backup for the current versions as they are now. Codeberg offer an interface very similar to that of GitHub so people used to the l...

Re: How to reduce opacity of all of the windows/apps in the background?

Yes it's possible. Actually I have here a new version that allows much more effects selectable at will. I've been delaying its publication due to one single feature missing that I can't just find out how to implement and there seems to be no help available. Guess will just have to publish it as is, ...

Re: How to enable shared clipboard or files in VirtualBox?

Yes, I am the developer. Created it out of the same frustration of not being able to share drives/folders with VMs and also to avoid all the desktop clutter created by any mount/unmount launchers. Installing the deb package one should only type drivemapper in terminal, or create a launcher and use t...

Re: How to enable shared clipboard or files in VirtualBox?

you might need guest additions in the guest - not sure. Definitely. If this type of sharing just won't work one can always try to enable a second network connection on the guest (in VBox settings), and mount the respective shared folders both on guest and the host. This would help when the Guest Ad...

Re: How to enable shared clipboard or files in VirtualBox?

There may be incompatibilities between the VBox version and the guest kernel version. Pay attention when updating the guest kernel, there may be an error showing when trying to build guest additions for the kernel.

Re: Spices - how to share settings between all instances?

Hey, no worries, it's your code, do as you feel right. :) I'm always playing with new code when I feel like it but at the end of the day it's just my vision, and doesn't always fit anybody else's. It's fun though. :lol:

Good luck ahead! :wink:

Re: Spices - how to share settings between all instances?

Here's how I modified the main applet script: applet.js settings-schema.zip Isn't it ironic: can attach js file, can't attach .json file. Ha! As it is now, if you ever decide to change the number of available values in settings just add/remove the corresponding colorStepN entries and modify the valu...

Nice find that Grenoble. Browsing it right now. :) Guess I once knew about icon filenaming but forgot together with many other things. Memory is not what it used to be, among others. :oops: SVG looks... weird "inside". I've checked out a few in the past, I'm not fond of XML in any shape or...

Re: applet icon color for light and dark themes

It says many things about the why but nothing about the how. Maybe analyzing the official symbolic icons in the Mint themes could reveal how they are built. Inkscape should be able to show the inner works of those SVGs. I think the performance of your computer wouldn't be a problem. This 19.2 is al...

Re: Spices - how to share settings between all instances?

A very strict language tends to become tiresome at some point. I had major difficulties with Python in the beginning due to its strict indentation requirement. I'm used to quick improvisations, trial and error, nevermind the aspect of the code - that can be fixed later on when everything just works....

Re: Spices - how to share settings between all instances?

If this.settings wouldn't exist that would be a major issue with the system, so maybe that check could be skipped. You could initialize currentStep to zero by default within settings-schema.json so you'd be sure it's initialized at first start after installation. If it ever were to be missing then t...

Re: Spices - how to share settings between all instances?

Yep, that was it. So it wasn't a bug or a network error - just an updated syntax that my system can't handle. Good news...for the updated users. :) Problem is, everything after 19.2 went downhill strictly from my point of view. May seem minor but we all have things we get attached to, and when they ...
