[Bug 1970141] Re: [focal] Desktop is mostly covered by a black rectangle
Weird I didn't ever ask for "desktopfolder" to be installed. I must have loaded something else which saw fit to call for it. But I didn't get any warning messages about XYZ being broken when I removed it. Thanks again anyhow. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1970141 Title: [focal] Desktop is mostly covered by a black rectangle To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/desktopfolder/+bug/1970141/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1970141] Re: [focal] Desktop is mostly covered by a black rectangle
Thanks that has completely cured it. I don't really understand what the command ever did for anyone. Everything I ever do is working fine without it. Mind you my desktop icons are all over the place now and some had to have launcher re-enabled.

Ubuntu does not install or support 'desktopfolder'. You can safely remove it, after which you should still have access to your desktop files. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1970141 Title: [focal] Desktop is mostly covered by a black rectangle To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/desktopfolder/+bug/1970141/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Process 2554 is "desktopfolder" which I suppose isn't a surprise. The original xrestop command was still running, having built up to 11MB. I aborted it and ran it again as you said. I attach the output from the second xrestop command. ** Attachment added: "xrestop output" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1970141/+attachment/5584926/+files/xrestop.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1970141 Title: [focal] Desktop is mostly covered by a black rectangle To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1970141/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The second command says _NET_WM_PID(CARDINAL) = 2554 The xrestop command is still running, having built up to 1.5MB at the time of writing.

Thanks, now we just need to figure out who owns window 0x203. Assuming you haven't logged out yet, please run: xrestop -b > xrestop.txt and attach the resulting text file here. You should also be able to find out which process owns the black window with: xprop -id 0x203 | grep _NET_WM_PID -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1970141 Title: [focal] Desktop is mostly covered by a black rectangle To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1970141/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
