[SOLVED] Context Menu not visible

Hello all,

It appears that all of a sudden my context menu is not visible.  I am running Gnome 3 w/ Cinnamon.  I just realized that I never tried in Gnome Shell, which I will test shortly.

Has anyone else recently lost the context menu everywhere?

Re: [SOLVED] Context Menu not visible

Given the last part of your post you may want to change the title to something more accurate like "Context menus in <app/de> not visible" as it sounds like the mouse is working.

Is this is all apps, or just a file manager?  What WM/DE, and what apps if it is only in some?

Thanx, adjusted the subject and message.

To answer your question, am running latest arch 64, gnome 3 with cinnamon.  I just tested in standard gnome3 and the context menu is visible, so it must be a cinnamon thing???

anyone else running cinnamon having this issue?

Re: [SOLVED] Context Menu not visible

It sounds like it's a common problem with cinnamon.  If you have not already done so, check out the other two recent threads on it - they seem to have a solution.
