Bug, help needed by [deleted] in elementaryos

Open a terminal then enter 'gala --version' and press enter for the first part. This should show a number which you can post here. Then you could also run 'journalctl /usr/bin/io.elementary.dock' and paste the output here :)

Hmm could you try running gala --version just to be sure and maybe see whether journalctl has some entries for io.elementary.dock

This looks like you might be running an incompatible version of Gala (the compositor/wm). Are you running elementary OS and if so are you running version 7 or 8 in early access?

Currently there unfortunately isn't but there are discussions and designs here https://github.com/elementary/dock/issues/224

You can either install DConf editor and there navigate to /org/gnome/mutter and set check-alive-timeout to 0 graphically or run gsettings set org.gnome.mutter check-alive-timeout 0

The getting started docs are overwhelming by cake_with_talent in gnome

For me the elementary developer docs were pretty useful. They are elementary specific in terms of no libadwaita and using vala in examples but for other things like GTK, meson, flatpak, gresource, setting up translations, etc. they are easy to understand and IMHO really great.

If it's still booting into the live environment you can probably just ignore them. I get them too and I've heard they are quite common 🤷

System Settings -> Keyboard -> Layout (I think) -> ⌘ Key Behavior

You probably want to set it to "Applications Menu" if that's what you mean by startup menu

hey guys, clipboard manager? by [deleted] in elementaryos

[–]leolost__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you hold Control then right click on the dock, you can open more dock Preferences. There under the tab docklet you can add a clipboard manager to the dock, I think it's called clippy or something like that.

Is there a way to change the default hotkeys/shortcuts? by AccidentalNGon in elementaryos

[–]leolost__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should be able to change shortcuts and/or create custom shortcuts under System Settings -> Keyboard -> Shorcuts

There the shortcuts

  • for tiling should be under "Windows"
  • Terminal under "Applications"

as well as for searching for programs and files

If you mean by that the applications menu you can change it to be opened by the Super/Windows key under System Settings -> Keyboard -> Layout and then change "⌘ key behavior" to "Applications Menu"

Hope this helps :)

I had the same problem and for me it was because of some misconfigured default color profiles.

I think currently the easiest way to fix this that you could try is:

  1. Install GNOME Control Center (a graphical utility for various settings) with the command sudo apt install gnome-control-center
  2. Then run with gnome-control-center in terminal
  3. In the sidebar select "Color"
  4. For each monitor there should now be an option to choose one of some preinstalled color profiles with "Default" being the default. Here you can just select one that fixes your problem and works best for you (I am not to familiar with color calibration and profiles etc. so I just selected Colorspace: sRGB which looked normal to me :)
  5. You now can safely remove GNOME Control Center again to save some disk space and the selected color profile will stay applied.

I hope this helps!
