Cinnamon not working after latest update (cinnamon just crashed)

rukumar333 · 2017-01-10 05:40:42

After the latest update to Cinnamon, it no longer works. When using cinnamon, a message shows up saying cinnamon crashed and it is going into fallback mode and if I want to restart cinnamon. If I click no, nothing happens and if I click yes, the same message appears. I am now on cinnamon version 3.2.8. Trying to downgrade it did not work either. I have tried gnome and that is working fine.

Just my two cents: do you have infinality fonts installed?
I experienced the same problem yesterday when I upgraded harfbuzz.

I tried downgrading harfbuzz but still having the same issue.

Just my two cents: do you have infinality fonts installed?

If you do not know please post the output of

$ pacman -Qs freetype

Also please post either then entire /var/log/pacman.log or the entries from the crash introducing update onwards.

I was having the same issue and i resolved it by removing completly infinality ( you can follow this guide) and then running this command:

sudo /usr/bin/gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache

Thank you so much! This did the trick! I got up to removing infinality but have not gone through with creating a infinality like fontconfig yet.

LiranV · 2017-01-17 10:04:59

Thank you cichli2, this worked for me too.

nathanb · 2017-01-18 14:52:48

I can confirm that updating the font cache is a critical step. I had uninstalled infinality but failed to do the above step and it still failed. I then ran:

gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache
fc-cache -fr

And then after a reboot everything worked.

pmillette · 2017-01-21 18:54:50

Hi,

I have the same problem but I am not using Infinality, I am using fontconfig-ubuntu
I can get Gnome to start but Cinnamon craches

jasonwryan · 2017-01-21 19:00:45

That is the same issue: rebuild it against the new harfbuzz.

Closing.
