Just Curious - Looking at .xsession-errors log

Post by AZgl1800 »

and I see a few things that might portend some issues that I have been unaware of?

the last two lines refer to me trying to setup a Schedule for LuckyBackup.... the time for it to run has not occurred yet. so don't know if it will run.

Would like to know what some of the errors mentioned mean?
And where is the file it refers to with a line number?

Re: Just Curious - Looking at .xsession-errors log

Post by trytip »

most of the errors you see are window manager errors or theme errors. i have spent quite a lot of time trying to get rid pf them and for a while things were good. cinnamon 4.09 came and back to square one so i gave up. unless your .xsession.errors file is really large (some had it go up to 17GB) there's not much you can do about it. some are not errors but initiate logs mixed in with whatever developers ask an application to dump
fortunately this file gets zeroed out when you logOFF and i believe mint has a 250KB limits for it

here's mine: i don't even bother anymore trying to sort it out. i pend most of my time in XFCE lately and the errors there are different but the same

the file is only 30kB

and Cinnamon runs just fine...
I just happened across the file, and thought I would read what is in it....

sometimes, innocence is a good thing :roll:

Is the only thing that looks odd for a Cinnamon desktop. Not sure why you would have a light-locker startup entry in the first place.
For custom Nemo actions, useful scripts for the Cinnamon desktop, and Cinnamox themes visit my Github pages.

i have the same thing. light-locker is the cinnamon-screensaver replacement when you install xfce-desktop. naturally light-locker is placed in the startup and cinnamon complains about it

these light-locker errors were not there before the cinnamon 4.0.9 update. and sometimes if you logoff cinnamon and start xfce session cinnamon-screensaver will also start and have to kill it. i have a conky telling me top processes and i see cinnamon-screensaver quite often starting up in xfce-session even though it's set not to

i guess cinnamon doesn't like extra desktops posting desktop entries in .config/autostart

as this is the first time I even looked at that log, I have not clue what used to be there.

I have the screensaver set to 1 hour....
and all power management to to NEVER or nothing.

close the lid, BIOS turns off the display.

open lid, it is ready to go.

IF, on battery power only, must remember to recharge it in about 5 or 6 hours.
