So the Control Center 2.2.3-3 is still using the old up_client_get_can_hibernate. This can be fixed by using the 0.99 version check IF/ELSE.

So I'm not the only one having trouble with the Power settings module?

Thanks for the link, I was trying to remember where I saw that patch. I did try it, and I compiled it and it did solve the problem. But what needs to be done to get it in Arch? Should I file a bug against Arch, or should I try to get the patch accepted upstream?

You will fail, no one simply push to upstream. I talked with the Cinnamon devs and they have no intent to support new upower until it hits Ubuntu or LinuxMint whatsoever.

That's what I suspected. So an Arch bug should be opened requesting the patch to be integrated? It shouldn't be a big deal, before Cinnamon 2.2 Arch used to use quite a few Arch-specific patches for Cinnamon.

Yeah, that's a good idea. I will vote it up.

Actually the keyboard stuff is still bug-ridden. I’m using the Neo keyboard layout[1] which remaps Caps lock to Mod3 — and that’s not working any more. I did not yet have any time to pay a close look to this but wanted to drop it here just get it noted (if any other Neo user is looking for this).
[1] http://neo-layout.org/

I'm using the swiss german keyboard layout and since the newest cinnamon update, it doesn't work anymore. I get the following error message when i try to choose it:

Error activating XKB configuration.
There can be various reasons for that.

If you report this situation as a bug, include the results of
• xprop -root | grep XKB
• gsettings get org.gnome.libgnomekbd.keyboard model
• gsettings get org.gnome.libgnomekbd.keyboard layouts
• gsettings get org.gnome.libgnomekbd.keyboard options

• xprop -root | grep XKB:
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "evdev", "pc104", "ch", "nodeadkeys", ""
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "pc104", "ara", "", ""

• gsettings get org.gnome.libgnomekbd.keyboard model:
''

• gsettings get org.gnome.libgnomekbd.keyboard layouts
['ch\tnodeadkeys']

• gsettings get org.gnome.libgnomekbd.keyboard options
@as []

• The output of 'xprop -root | grep XKB' after 'setxkbmap 'ch(de)':
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "evdev", "pc104", "ch", "nodeadkeys", ""
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "pc104", "ch(de)", "", ""

The problem occurs on three different computers.

The commit you reference in the bug report is applied for 2.2.3 (the version currently in arch) it just misses the two calls my patch handles.

The new Cinnamon 2.2.5-1 and related packages (some of which have different versions) just hit Arch stable, and quite a few issues are now fixed.

Now fixed:
* Some systray icons not appearing
* Power module of Cinnamon Settings wouldn't load

Broken:
* New issue: Desktop icon text color is wrong, now beige and almost unreadable. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/40207
* Power applet still doesn't work. What can be done to implement this fixed version? https://github.com/robin92/cinnamon-power-applet/

Did you remove the stock Cinnamon power applet? I also found that it broke the functionality of the Power module in the Cinnamon Settings. When I removed that applet and logged out/in the Power settings started working again.

Power applet is not loaded checked in looking glass and tried a reboot to ensure all loaded libraries where the correct version. Same result as posted above.

I'm the same as @loqs.

I have updated to Cinnamon 2.2.5, have disabled the built-in power applet, and the problem persists. Same unresolved symbol up_client_get_can_hibernate.

clfarron4 · 2014-05-07 11:45:29

Does anyone have RAM leakage when cinnamon-screensaver activates? It only happens for me with cinnamon-screensaver-2.2.2-1.

I downgraded to cinnamon-screensaver-2.2.0-2 and the RAM leakage is gone.

I haven't noticed any RAM leakage per se, but I have had a serious problem with the session becoming unresponsive and only the mouse moving after waking the screensaver. The only way to regain control of the system is by killing the X server. Here's the bug report: https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/issues/3123 Not sure if clfarron4's RAM leakage is related?

Azrael85 · 2014-05-08 09:50:12

With the last update the text of the desktop icons has become too much darker and I barely can read it. Has anyone else notice this??

Biege? How've you done that one? I've got black text here.

That said, I've not paid attention to desktop icons because I don't have any.

No idea. My icon text used to be white.

Well, I can agree with you that it used to be white.
