GDK fail

[Berkmann18]

Whenever I try to run safeeyes on ArchLinux (linux 5.1.16-arch1-1-ARCH) with awesomewm.

I get this:

(safeeyes:31014): Gdk-CRITICAL **: 21:28:07.388: gdk_window_thaw_toplevel_updates: assertion 'window->update_and_descendants_freeze_count > 0' failed

Not sure what I'm missing.

@Berkmann18 I do get it in my LM machine. I think it's mostly because of the GTK theme though I am not sure.

[Berkmann18]

@slgobinath Perhaps, what GTK theme do you have?
I have Adwaita GTK2/3 (for now).

I'm using my custom theme which I forked from another theme which I don't remember. I've observed this behavior in some of my VMs too like Manjaro. However, I didn't get this warning on Fedora with Gnome (default theme) when I tested Safe Eyes yesterday.

Hey, I have the same issue on my OS with safeeyes 2.1.3

OS: Arch Linux
WM: Qtile (0.20.0)
Kernel: 5.16.10-zen1-1-zen

I found this also: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/caffeine/+bug/1879518

I'm getting the same issue, also running Arch but with i3.

I'm getting the same issue, also running Arch but with i3.

Can you please try the latest master branch?

yay -S safeeyes-git

Just tried it, showed me an error message about missing a dependency. I installed snixembed and ran snixembed --fork. After restarting safeeyes the error popu is gone but I get:

/org/ayatana/NotificationItem/io_github_slgobinath_SafeEyes appeared
/org/ayatana/NotificationItem/io_github_slgobinath_SafeEyes is not a service name, falling back to appindicator on :1.38
:1.38 set menu: /io/github/slgobinath/SafeEyes/Menu

(snixembed:27244): Gdk-CRITICAL **: 08:25:26.161: gdk_window_thaw_toplevel_updates: assertion 'window->update_and_descendants_freeze_count > 0' failed

Note that the whole time the application runs fine and the tray icon has always appeared.

@PMunch If it runs fine after installing snixembed, all good.

Also please add your feedback in #617

I think you misunderstood. It worked without the latest version of snixembed as well. In fact I've since gone back to using the latest stable version and it works wonderfully.
