| linocisco | Hello all . Everytime, I login to ubuntu mate, I got "report problem and Cancel" box. Upon checking out google and forums. it is mentioned to check apport.log under /var/log | 04:20 |
|---|---|---|
| linocisco | here is the output of apport.log . https://pastebin.com/0Zw3MFsV | 04:21 |
| linocisco | I have tried apt-get autoremove to remove some junks or uninstalled programs | 04:23 |
| linocisco | problem still remains | 04:23 |
| alkisg | linocisco: try sudo rm /var/crash/*, then reboot | 05:21 |
| alkisg | Sometimes mate-panel etc crash, then you see the dialog until you either delete the crash dump, or you select "ignore crashes from this app" | 05:21 |
| linocisco | alkisg, thanks. mate. I will give a try | 05:22 |
| linocisco | alkisg, it worked really ! it fixed. thanks alot | 05:37 |
| alkisg | linocisco: remember the command, you may need it again in a few weeks! Cheers! | 05:38 |
| linocisco | alkisg, why it will crash again and again? | 05:38 |
| alkisg | Yeah some mate apps crash from time to time unfortunately | 05:39 |
| alkisg | Although e.g. kde apps crash a lot more! :D | 05:39 |
| alkisg | (I don't know about gnome I can't use that) | 05:39 |
| linocisco | alkisg, it means ubuntu mate is not reliable or stable like original ubuntu ? | 05:41 |
| linocisco | alkisg, thanks. I will remember that command for later use | 05:41 |
| alkisg | No. I'm using ubuntu-mate for my main desktop | 05:42 |
| alkisg | I mean that "all software has bugs in general" :) | 05:42 |

| enyc | curious how much ubuntu-MATE is used over mint-MATE these days... is MATE a declining DE anyhow...? | 07:41 |
| alkisg | I've no idea, but I guess anyone familiar with debian policy (developers etc) avoid mint because it severely breaks it, so they'd use vanilla ubuntu or debian over mint | 09:43 |
| alkisg | GNOME still has more resources than many people have, so other DEs will be valuable for a long time | 09:44 |
| alkisg | MATE used to be very light, unfortunately it's becoming a bit more bloated with Canonical enforcing snap. We'll see how it goes, maybe a switch to Debian with MATE or KDE will be needed... | 09:44 |
| alkisg | *GNOME still needs, not has | 09:45 |
| guiverc | alkisg, MATE became 'heavy' (slowish) by 16.04 in my opinion (as a mate user using pentium M laptops); GTK3 & not the snaps in my experience being the issue for me at least (using less-ancient cpus the drop in speed far less severe) | 11:35 |
| sixwheeledbeast | It is struggling on older hardware since 18.04 even with snap removed | 12:07 |
| sixwheeledbeast | just because something in the mate-panel crashes that doesn't make the whole system unstable. | 12:15 |
| superkuh | Yes. GTK3 became GNOME-ified and bad after 2013. | 13:49 |
| superkuh | mclasen started intentionally removing features like the ability to paste file paths into file->open dialogs. | 13:50 |
| konstantin_unruh | <superkuh> "mclasen started intentionally..." <- this is still possible, isn't it? | 15:25 |
| superkuh | Only after doing a keyboard shortcut. | 15:26 |
| superkuh | It will error if you just try to paste or send the path in an automated way as sometimes happens. | 15:26 |
| superkuh | And the gsettings available for LOCATION_MODE_FILENAME_ENTRY vs LOCATION_MODE_PATH_BAR for gtkfilechooserwidget.c are no longer respected. | 15:28 |
