Hello all,
I have thousands entry messages in journal like this:
budgie-wm[2149]: Can't update stage views actor <unnamed>[<MetaSurfaceActorX11>:0x59c7db088f50] is on because it needs an allocation.
Anyone knows how to solve ?
Hello all,
I have thousands entry messages in journal like this:
budgie-wm[2149]: Can't update stage views actor <unnamed>[<MetaSurfaceActorX11>:0x59c7db088f50] is on because it needs an allocation.
Anyone knows how to solve ?
Please do a bit of testing:
Do fresh error messages occur upon a fresh reboot, after login to be Budgie desktop, with NO applications running?
Or do fresh error messages occur only when a specific application is running? If so, which application?
If a specific application, does that application have different screen options (like full screen)? Can the issue be localized to a specific screen option?
After testing, you may be filing a bug report about this issue. So it’s important to be able to explain how to reproduce the issue on somebody else’s system. More reproducible = better.
The errors starts at boot as I can see from $journalctl -b
The messages start here

and repeat it any 30 seconds
Most of that seems normal, but I suspect your nvidia driver might be borked.
Please also show us this:
modinfo nvidia | grep ^version
One possibility is;
sudo apt install --reinstall budgie-desktop budgie-core gir1.2-budgie-1.0 libbudgie-plugin0 libbudgie-private0 libbudgietheme0 libraven0 gnome-control-center budgie-desktop-environment ubuntu-budgie-desktop
But Please Have Good Back-ups in place first, if not already done.
I have no nvidia card
I opened a ubuntu bug for now, before to reinstall the entire budgie desktop
