Gnome-users

[terroreek]

Heads up gnome users, if you use the option 'Have file manager handle the desktop' enabled, the latest batch of updates will stop nautilus from drawing the wallpaper.  I just get a white desktop.  If I turn that option off in tweak tool I get the wallpaper again but off course you loose the show home, mount drives and trash options.

If any ones interested these are the updates that are being pushed out.

[musca]

hello terroreek,

i worked with the guys from #debian-gnome on the issue and they have confirmed it.

<musca> Icons vanish if i toggle the setting "have filemanger handle the desktop"
<musca> if i immediate switch back then the icons will reappear.
<musca> if i wait more than 10 seconds then the icons don't reappear.
<pochu> ah, indeed
<musca> but logoff and logon let's them reappear.
...
<bigon> probably because nautilus exits?
<pochu> nope, it's still running
<pochu> and if you kill it, the background comes back
<pochu> oh wait I got the icons
<pochu> they are just on the secondary monitor

So now the talented people know about this weird issue and we can wait for a fix,

or downgrade libgtk-3-0 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=726562 .


greetings
musca
