This isn't specifically a Unity issue, but it happened right after the upgrade to gtk-3.10, and there was discussion of that here, so I figured I can ask... If I need to create a new topic, I'm more than happy to do so. After I did my update with gtk-3.10, evolution has stopped working. Here's the error:

 evolution: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libwebkitgtk-3.0.so.0: undefined symbol: gdk_wayland_display_get_type 

Any suggestions? I have searched Google, but there is nothing about evolution and gdk_wayland.

I'm still working on this one. GTK 3.10 doesn't compile against the version of Wayland in the Arch repos right now. I had to disable wayland support for it to compile at all.

Thanks for your input, Chen!!! I really appreciate you getting back to me on this!

@darkshines, thanks for the workaround. But, what is wrong with the unity-tweak-tool PKGBUILD?

Re: Progress on Unity under Arch Linux!

In my case everything works except brightnes fn keys. It started with gnome 3.10 but now in gnome they work. But in unity not. I'm pretty sure it is related to the mapping of fn keys. Do you know in which package to dig to find the solution?
Thanks

Re: Progress on Unity under Arch Linux!

Has anyone else noticed that some standard indicators are missing, like Dropbox and Transmission?

Re: Progress on Unity under Arch Linux!

This is odd. I reinstalled dropbox from AUR and deleted my .dropbox* folders. Still no indicator icon. Or do I need to install something to get it working?

Re: Progress on Unity under Arch Linux!

I would like to give Unity another try, but whenever I try installing it, it gives me this error:

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: libdbusmenu-gtk2: requires libdbusmenu-glib=12.10.3daily13.11.25
:: libindicate: requires libdbusmenu

I tried running this to see if it solves the problem, but it didn't.

sudo pacman -S Unity-for-Arch/libdbusmenu-gtk2 Unity-for-Arch/libindicate Unity-for-Arch/libdbusmenu

What should I do?

I had this same problem, and I solved it by commenting out the community repo in /etc/pacman.conf (putting a hash mark (# sign) in front of two lines for the community repo), installing Unity, then removing the hash marks from the community repo. Every time you update it will warn you that libdbusmenu-glib is newer than the community version, but it will not over-write it.

blueman is not compatible with bluez 5.x and bluez4 and blueman were dropped from the repositories,
because it can't be installed in parallel to bluez 5 and blueman development is not very active,
so chances are, it'll never be compatible to bluez 5 or at least it'll take quite a time till it's fixed.

You should probably look for an alternative.

Thanks for your reply. Yes later I came to know it's not compatible with bluez 5.x. Also I found there is gnome-bluetooth installed with unity so I don't need blueman now. So now just have only one issue, I can't see bluetooth icon. Can you please help me to get bluetooth indicator icon on top panel ? I have enabled bluetooth service too but still no icon on top panel.

Also global menu is not working for gtk applications like filezilla but I think Chen is working on it, I hope to have it fixed in next upgrade.

Thanks!!

It's a new feature of Gnome 3.10. So currently we can do nothing.

Re: Progress on Unity under Arch Linux!

I know about nautilus and other gnome 3.10 apps decorations, but what to do with "empty" control center ?
It's fresh Arch  install and I installed almost packages from Unity-for-Arch and Unity-for-Arch-Extra repos.
I also installed unity-tweak-tool but it doesn't work so I had to use lxappearance to change gtk theme and icons.

Re: Progress on Unity under Arch Linux!

For those missing the indicator icon for dropbox: I fixed it by install libappindicator1 from AUR. But you have to uninstall libappindicator first, due to file conflicts.

Edit:
And I managed to get the transmission indicator by rebuilding transmission with ABS, so it finds libappindicator while configuring. If you still have no indicator icon at that point, make sure that the option "Show transmission icon in the notification area" under "Desktop" is checked.

The wiki says that we can use a recommended repo and a testing one for Unity, but they both link the same address.

In my case everything works except brightnes fn keys. It started with gnome 3.10 but now in gnome they work. But in unity not. I'm pretty sure it is related to the mapping of fn keys. Do you know in which package to dig to find the solution?
Thanks

No one able to help me? I'm desperate. At least to know if someone else has the same problem
Merry Xmas

Merry Xmas. But I can confirm that I don't have this problem on thinkpad x220.

Please could you check this thing for me?
Type keyboard in the dash and open the keyboard settings. Then look for shortcuts yab. Do you find something related to brightness up and down?
Chen,
I tried to run the program dbus-launch --session... Trying to send a signal to increase the brightness: in gnome it works. In Unity it gives timeout after some time. Do you have any idea? Which program shoul I recompile?

Re: Progress on Unity under Arch Linux!

Happy New Year!

I've successfully installed Arch Unity in VirtualBox (Arch Linux host OS). However, launching Firefox crashes the entire environment; i.e. Vbox aborted. I'm not sure what the problem may be, other than being in a virtual machine. Oddly enough, Firefox doesn't always crash the system and seems random.

I used the pacman.conf method of installation w/ a 64-bit architecture - 4GB RAM and 6 cores + video acceleration @ 128MB.

Any thoughts?

UPDATE: When Firefox launches successfully, here is the output when launched from a terminal:

(process:996): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion 'sys_page_size == 0' failed

(firefox:996): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: Attempt to add property GnomeProgram::sm-connect after class was initialised

(firefox:996): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: Attempt to add property GnomeProgram::show-crash-dialog after class was initialised

(firefox:996): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: Attempt to add property GnomeProgram::display after class was initialised
