and a (gnome)window pops up saying:

Code: Select all

The Application "gDesklets" has quit unexpectedly.
You can inform the developers of what happened to help them fix it.  Or you can restart the application right now.

i'm running a ~x86 system
how can i solve this?

Did gdesklets work for you until a recent emerge? I upgraded a few packages today and have a similar problem. I don't know what I upgraded that could have done this, and I have messed around unmerging/merging gdesklets-core and all the displays and removing my gdesklets settings etc. I didn't save an error message as I had it originally unfortunately, but I have just emerged gdesklets-core and desklet-starterbar again quickly to paste what I get now (I had a lot more displays before, and they all showed up in the error message but this seems to have the same jist to it).

Code: Select all

keffin@Gentoo ~ $ gdesklets &
Error loading target html

Then I get the "app has quit unexpectedly" dialogue as you do

i had it working with goodweather, clock, starterbar and calendar displays.
i upgraded a some packages( don't know which ones) and the next time i started gdesklets(the next morning on boot) i got the error.
thought it might have been a python upgrade(deprecationwarnings) and messed around with that but it's still the same.
same problem for users on my system that haven't used gdesklets before.

I did a qpkg -f /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py and found out that pygtk is responsible for that file, looking on http://packages.gentoo.org I can see that the ebuild for version 2.4 (latest ~x86, which I also use) is only a couple of days old. This could be the culprit. I'm going to downgrade to pygtk2.2 and see what happens.

EDIT: Pygtk-2.4.0 is the problem. Solution: emerge =pygtk-2.2.0. For the record I was using the latest gdesklets and displays (ebuilds on bugzilla) at first, so they do not work with pygtk-2.4.0 either.

Now I have to make my desktop all pretty again from scratch

.

EDIT 2: If a bug hasn't been submitted on bugzilla by the time I get my password I'll put it up.

Don't want to thread-jack, but I emerged gdesklets-core and some of the displays and the command "gdesklet" is not availble to me. I also have gDesklet and gDesklet Displays listed under accessories in my Gnome applications panel. When I click on gDesklet is says "Cannot launch entry". Any ideas why this would be happening?

The command is gdesklets. I haven't used gnome for some time (2.4.something) but I seem to remember having problems launching desklets from the menu, you may have better luck from the command line.

I have the same error when I try emerging gdesklets-core-0.26.2. And of course, I can't run the executable, because it doesn't exist because of the error above.

Thanks guys !!!

I have downgraded pygtk by adding this in package.mask :

Code: Select all

>=dev-python/pygtk-2.4.0

I have also done a revdep-rebuild to rebuild apps that have been broken intentionnaly it seems by the maintainer of gettext. Now, it's all running like before

Wow, I have tried various combinations of pygtk, gettext, revdep-rebuild in order to get gdesklets running. It's so frustrating. I've gotten a scenario where gdesklets would start but crash as shown above in this thread, another scenerio where the gdesklet binary wouldn't build and my current scenario where its just seg faults.

$ gdesklets
Segmentation fault

I'm about to go crazy. I really want to get this working. Well, this and a software mixer for ALSA because my sound card CMI9739 doesn't have a hardware mixer. If anyone has a setup with gdesklets that actually works, please tell me the relevant packages and versions that you are using and any tips to getting it started. Thanks for all the help in the thread.

Using pygtk-2.2.0 and gettext-0.14.1 works fine for me on a pure ~x86 system, as long as you have used revdep-rebuild to fix any broken deps from the new gettext package (run revdep-rebuild again to make sure). The gdesklets-core version is 0.26.2.

nlayo · Post by **nlayo** » Thu Oct 07, 2004 5:41 am

Thanks for your help. I did try that combination of pygtk-2.2.0, gettext-0.14.1, and gdesklets-core-0.26.2 and revdep-rebuild, but I still get a segmentation fault when I try to start 'gdesklets'. This is so weird. I guess that something else is broken too, but I'm not sure what. (I use ~x86 too by the way) Anyone have any clues on how I might investigate this further? Thanks.

.hesoez · Post by **.hesoez** » Thu Oct 07, 2004 10:30 am

thx, got it working again.

i got the segfault too
because i recompiled some packages trying to fix the first problem, i just recompiled them again and it worked again.

Code: Select all

emerge -a libgnomeprintui libgtkhtml glut pyopengl gtkglarea pygtk gnome-python gdesklets-core

grtz

MADcow · Post by **MADcow** » Thu Oct 07, 2004 12:59 pm

i'm having this very same problem. new gdesklet install, ~x86.
can someone detail the steps involved? i did revdep-rebuild, but it didn't fix it.

EDIT: after merging pygtk-2.2.0, now i get a segfault
AWESOME!

nlayo · Post by **nlayo** » Thu Oct 07, 2004 3:27 pm

.hesoez, you are a genius. Yup, everything worked out by just typing in the same emerge command you posted. Wow, this is really awesome!

nlayo

MADcow · Post by **MADcow** » Thu Oct 07, 2004 8:25 pm

.hesoez, running emerge -a libgnomeprintui libgtkhtml glut pyopengl gtkglarea pygtk gnome-python gdesklets-core gets me back to the original problem now O.O

You did mask out pygtk-2.4.0 right? If you didn't then that will have installed itself again along the way.

MADcow · Post by **MADcow** » Thu Oct 07, 2004 8:35 pm

haha that's the problem

running emerge -s pygtk says it's 2.4.0 again
wow... silly me.
it works now

you're awesome.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^Bump

Im bumping this back to the top because

Code: Select all

emerge -a libgnomeprintui libgtkhtml glut pyopengl gtkglarea pygtk gnome-python gdesklets-core

just works

Im posting a link to this thread in gdesklets gnome forum too

I had gdesklets 0.26 working fine and tried to upgrade to 0.30 with no luck- and python was a mess afterward and ebuilds of .26 would seg fault and the 0.30 daemon would never run.

This will fix any pygtk pyorbit gnome-python miss matches you might have

Don't judge a n00b by his title

Excellent post .hesoez

robet · Post by **robet** » Tue Nov 02, 2004 7:59 pm

I can attest that it 'just works'
Great fix!

you said:

Code: Select all

emerge -a libgnomeprintui libgtkhtml glut pyopengl gtkglarea pygtk gnome-python gdesklets-core

works, well, that might be true for the portage that was up to date last week.

But this will be true as long the ebuilds exist: (for 0.26.2)

*

Code: Select all

emerge -a =libgnomeprintui-2.8.0 =libgtkhtml-3.2.3 =glut-3.7.1 =pyopengl-2.0.0.44 =gtkglarea-1.99.0 =pygtk-2.2.0 =gnome-python-2.0.0-r1 =gdesklets-core-0.26.2

* = before emerge do:

Code: Select all

echo "=dev-python/pygtk-2.2.0 ~x86" >> /home/portage/package.keywords &&
echo ">=gnome-extra/gdesklets-core-0.26.2 ~x86" >> /home/portage/package.keywords

edit/update: (installing 0.31.1 from tarball)
afterwards i installed the new version (not in portage today) that way:

Code: Select all

wget http://www.pycage.de/download/gdesklets/gDesklets-0.31.1.tar.bz2
tar -jxf gDesklets-0.31.1.tar.bz2
cd gDesklets-0.31
./configure --prefix=/usr/
make
su -c "make install"
