[Bug 1574236] Re: pcmanfm desktop settings reset to defaults on reboot
I finally managed to reproduce the error. The problem seems to be with files containing special characters in their names. When I created a file named [.txt on the desktop and rearranged its place, the settings reset again after reboot. I post the output of ls -lR ~/.config/pcmanfm while the error occurred: before logout: /home/viktor/.config/pcmanfm: összesen 4 drwx-- 2 viktor viktor 4096 ápr 18 15:18 lubuntu /home/viktor/.config/pcmanfm/lubuntu: összesen 8 -rw-rw-r-- 1 viktor viktor 380 ápr 18 15:18 desktop-items-0.conf -rw-rw-r-- 1 viktor viktor 472 ápr 18 15:04 pcmanfm.conf after login: /home/viktor/.config/pcmanfm: összesen 4 drwx-- 2 viktor viktor 4096 ápr 18 15:21 lubuntu /home/viktor/.config/pcmanfm/lubuntu: összesen 8 -rw-rw-r-- 1 viktor viktor 376 ápr 18 15:21 desktop-items-0.conf -rw-rw-r-- 1 viktor viktor 472 ápr 18 15:04 pcmanfm.conf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574236 Title: pcmanfm desktop settings reset to defaults on reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcmanfm/+bug/1574236/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The best way to inspect ~/.config/pcmanfm would be issuing a command ls -lR ~/.config/pcmanfm Thank you. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574236 Title: pcmanfm desktop settings reset to defaults on reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcmanfm/+bug/1574236/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I could not reproduce the issue, so it may not be too helpful, but here is the output of ls anyway: before logout: viktor@viktor-desktop:~$ ls -lR ~/.config/pcmanfm /home/viktor/.config/pcmanfm: összesen 4 drwx-- 2 viktor viktor 4096 dec4 19:57 lubuntu /home/viktor/.config/pcmanfm/lubuntu: összesen 8 -rw-rw-r-- 1 viktor viktor 3149 dec4 19:57 desktop-items-0.conf -rw-rw-r-- 1 viktor viktor 472 dec4 19:56 pcmanfm.conf after login: viktor@viktor-desktop:~$ ls -lR ~/.config/pcmanfm /home/viktor/.config/pcmanfm: összesen 4 drwx-- 2 viktor viktor 4096 dec4 20:13 lubuntu /home/viktor/.config/pcmanfm/lubuntu: összesen 8 -rw-rw-r-- 1 viktor viktor 3141 dec4 20:13 desktop-items-0.conf -rw-rw-r-- 1 viktor viktor 472 dec4 19:56 pcmanfm.conf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574236 Title: pcmanfm desktop settings reset to defaults on reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcmanfm/+bug/1574236/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you very much for inspecting this.
