[Bug 737320] Re: unity crashed with AttributeError in reset_unity_compiz_profile(): 'str' object has no attribute 'get_string'
Here's a fix to this problem:
sudo nano /usr/bin/
At line ~83, you'll find:
if current_profile_gconfvalue.get_string() == 'unity':
print WARNING: Unity currently default profile, so switching to
metacity while resetting the values
subprocess.Popen([metacity, --replace]) #TODO: check if compiz is
indeed running
# wait for compiz to stop
time.sleep(2)
current_profile_gconfvalue.set_string('fooo')
current_profile_schema.set_default_value(current_profile_gconfvalue)
client.set_schema(/apps/compizconfig-1/current_profile,
current_profile_schema)
# the python binding doesn't recursive-unset right
subprocess.Popen([gconftool-2, --recursive-unset,
/apps/compiz-1]).communicate()
Change this to (we're just wrapping another if around it to make sure
the object it's trying to use isn't the empty string we started with):
if current_profile_gconfvalue != :
if current_profile_gconfvalue.get_string() == 'unity':
print WARNING: Unity currently default profile, so switching to
metacity while resetting the values
subprocess.Popen([metacity, --replace]) #TODO: check if compiz
is indeed running
# wait for compiz to stop
time.sleep(2)
current_profile_gconfvalue.set_string('fooo')
current_profile_schema.set_default_value(current_profile_gconfvalue)
client.set_schema(/apps/compizconfig-1/current_profile,
current_profile_schema)
# the python binding doesn't recursive-unset right
subprocess.Popen([gconftool-2, --recursive-unset,
/apps/compiz-1]).communicate()
Then run
unity --reset
It'll all be back to normal.
Enjoy

No worry James :) Of course, all testing is really appreciated! So, yeah, Unity has some 3D requirement to be able to run, what virtualbox doesn't provide out the box.

so, can you please try this and print the output back here:

current_profile_gconfvalue = current_profile_schema.get_default_value();

Hey Anduu,
I can get a pretty easy fix for that, but this issue shouldn't happen,
so, can you please try this and print the output back here:
python -c import gconf; client = gconf.client_get_default();
current_profile_schema =
client.get_schema('/apps/compizconfig-1/current_profile');
current_profile_gconfvalue = current_profile_schema.get_default_value();
print current_profile_gconfvalue; print
current_profile_gconfvalue.get_string()
(all in one line on a terminal).
Thanks!

Hey James, did you get that bug before? Do you still have it when you run unity --reset? Seems like it can't happen with the current values you have. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/737320 Title: unity crashed with AttributeError in reset_unity_compiz_profile(): 'str' object has no attribute 'get_string' -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 737320] Re: unity crashed with AttributeError in reset_unity_compiz_profile(): 'str' object has no attribute 'get_string'
The problem I have been trying to solve is I don't get the Unity left-side
dock, etc. and when I tried the unity --reset command it failed - which I
reported.
Here is the result of doing both in terminal:
jjl@jjl-VirtualBox:~$ python -c import gconf; client =
gconf.client_get_default(); current_profile_schema =
client.get_schema('/apps/compizconfig-1/current_profile');
current_profile_gconfvalue = current_profile_schema.get_default_value();
print current_profile_gconfvalue; print
current_profile_gconfvalue.get_string()
GConfValue at 0x84a2e50
unity
jjl@jjl-VirtualBox:~$ unity --reset

I don't understand the unity-panel-service being missing but the Fatal
message is the GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is missing.
This report was combined by someone with more familiarity (not difficult to
find!) so I can only assume it is part of the string problem.
I hope this helps.

@James: the issue you are showing (unity which doesn't start) isn't at all related to unity --reset. It's just that you don't have opengl support in your virtualbox. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/737320 Title: unity crashed with AttributeError in reset_unity_compiz_profile(): 'str' object has no attribute 'get_string' -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 737320] Re: unity crashed with AttributeError in reset_unity_compiz_profile(): 'str' object has no attribute 'get_string'
I appreciate your letting me know what the problem is. Here I thought I would be some help in testing the pre-release Natty, and now I find out it can't run Unity, the basic UI in VirtualBox. I thought that was the whole point of running pre-release systems inside virtual environments - allowing testing without disturbing the existing system... I should have known it was too good to be true. :-( I'm sorry to have wasted your time with this.
