Mate 1.26
Slackware Current64 XFCE with MATE:Caja and friends.
With mate 1.26 from http://slackware.uk/msb/current/1.26/x86_64/ I see a *LOT* of these messages: Code:
** caja(nnnn): CRITICAL **: hh:mm:ss:sss: caja_bookmark_get_location: assertion 'CAJA_IS_BOOKMARK (bookmark)' failed :D |
I'm on the MATE desktop and a fully upgraded -current (MATE-1.26 included).
I rarely use caja, but when running caja from terminal I get no messages/assertions whatsoever. |
I also upgraded to mate-1.26 on an up to date -current and I am not seeing any errors like that on my system. I didn't use the binaries I built the packages from source. It is still pretty brand new though, I just installed the packages yesterday. I am also experimenting with compiz-0.9.14.1 instead of the compiz-0.8 branch.

I'm having issue with MATE 1.26 with power management. When my monitor is idle, it stays showing blank screen, but everything else works fine. I don't know if anyone else having this issue as well
|
Building my own and running it all day. I haven't had any problems. Only thing is that I don't have any reboot/shutdown options for some reason.

Some more details:
The assertion messages this issue is about are given for each opening of a directory. I boot my Slackware instances in level 3. After logging in I issue a "startx" command. The XFCE session is configured to come up with a caja and an xfce4-terminal window. After doing some work in caja I log out of the XFCE session. Back on the level 3 screen I then see a lot of messages. I know the messages I thus see with mate 1.24 are harmless because I have seen them for years while not experiencing any abnormalities. The assertion messages however are new with mate 1.26. With the following test I can see the assertions in an xterm: -- In the xterm verify that all caja instances are closed; -- Issue a "caja" command; -- In caja open a directory by double clicking on it: the assertion messages appear in the xterm; -- Close the caja window. Code:
burdi01@riposo:~/works$ ps -ef | grep -i caja I run XFCE for historical reasons, but I run caja because thunar does not support opening subdirectories in the same window. :D |

To dig deeper I downloaded and installed Alien's latest mate ISO (https://slackware.uk/people/alien-slacklive/latest/). As expected its mate 1.24 did not give the assertion messages.
I then applied my 12 1.26 packages: the assertion messages still occurred. I then downloaded and applied all 52 mate 1.26 packages: the assertion messages no longer occur. Researching ... :D |
Am I missing something though? The mate-desktop.org site still only shows 1.24 as the most current.

So I fixed my issue. Needed to take out consolekit stuff and add elogind stuff.
I might just make MATE my daily driver. :D |

Code:
bash-5.1$ gparted Code:
bash-5.1$ pkexec gparted |
