Thanks. You reported the original bug from a Wayland session. Please try logging out and then selecting the Xorg session on the login screen. Does the bug still occur?
I suspect that's the main issue here. Not the presence of nvdia- driver-470 directly, but it will change what default session type you get. nvdia-driver-470 will force a Xorg session by default which allows apps to place windows/widgets themselves. Not having an Nvidia driver installed, you will get a Wayland session and apps are not allowed to position themselves (although I thought gnome-shell had a workaround for that for compatibility with Xwayland). Please: 1. Uninstall nvdia-driver-470 2. Reboot 3. On the login screen select 'Ubuntu on Xorg' instead of the default 'Ubuntu' option. ** Summary changed: - xserver for NVDIA GeForce GT710 not showing widgets but windows + Weather widgets appear in the wrong position in a Wayland session ** Package changed: gnome-shell-extension-appindicator (Ubuntu) => mutter (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell-extension-appindicator in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2057964 Title: Weather widgets appear in the wrong position in a Wayland session Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: On my Ububtu 22.04.4 system, NVDIA GeForce GT710, my-weather-indicator does not show widget as they should be (move them across desktop, positioning, showing on all desktop, etc.), but are shown as windows, impossible to move from the position they have when shown. If I switch my drivers to nvdia-driver-470, surprise!: everything works as expected, widgets are really widgets and I can see weather information on every desktop, in the position I placed them. The problem is that I can't use nvdia-driver-470 because they let crash my digital signature application, which is more important to me than weather info, so I have to use xorg-server, but I would like it to work correctly with widgets as well. --- ProblemType: Bug ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu82.5 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: pass CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME DistroRelease: Ubuntu 22.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2024-03-03 (12 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS "Jammy Jellyfish" - Release amd64 (20240220) NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia Package: gnome-shell-extension-appindicator 42-2~fakesync1 PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm-256color PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=it_IT.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 6.5.0-25.25~22.04.1-generic 6.5.13 Tags: jammy Uname: Linux 6.5.0-25-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin lxd plugdev sambashare sudo vboxusers _MarkForUpload: True --- ProblemType: Bug ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu82.5 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: pass CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME DistroRelease: Ubuntu 22.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2024-03-03 (12 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS "Jammy Jellyfish" - Release amd64 (20240220) Package: gnome-shell-extension-appindicator 42-2~fakesync1 PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm-256color PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=it_IT.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 6.5.0-25.25~22.04.1-generic 6.5.13 Tags: jammy wayland-session Uname: Linux 6.5.0-25-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin lxd plugdev sambashare sudo vboxusers _MarkForUpload: True To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/2057964/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
