Few xsession-errors warnings.

sushi · 2024-12-26 10:13:11

Hello,

On Arch and xfce 4.20 I have these warnings at every boot:

(xfsettingsd:1103): xfconf-WARNING **: 08:13:45.100: Type gint does not match type gboolean of property /AutoEnableProfiles

I have a DisplayCAL profile loading fine but I'm don't know if it's related to that?

And:

** (xfdesktop:1125): WARNING **: 08:13:47.686: Failed to register the newly set background with AccountsService '/home/xxxx/Images/Wallpapers/dragonkahn.jpg': GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs: L’interface « org.freedesktop.DisplayManager.AccountsService » doesn't exist

The wallpaper is loading fine but throw the warning. I have no display manager, I'm launching xfce4 through .xinitrc. This warning was also in xfce 4.18.

Any suggestion?

Thanks

(xfsettingsd:1103): xfconf-WARNING **: 08:13:45.100: Type gint does not match type gboolean of property /AutoEnableProfiles

It's harmless and should go away if you change this setting in xfce4-display-settings (advanced -> first try to automatically enable a profile)

Thanks Tamaranch,

It was set to always, changing to never fixed it.

Any idea about the wallpaper warning?

> It was set to always, changing to never fixed it.

I strongly recommend that you leave it at always: it's the default value because it ensures that the default profile is applied whenever possible, which is what the user generally expects (returning to the previous state after a screen disconnection/reconnection, for example).

> Any idea about the wallpaper warning?

Nope, that's another story.

I see... I'm trying the option "when a display is connected" instead of always and never. I guess it should do the same as always.

Thanks

No, it doesn't, as the name suggests smile

The wallpapaer error is because AccountService by default does not have access to your home directory. Move or copy the image to /usr/share/wallpapers and the error should go away. You will need to reselect it once moved.

@ Tamaranch: I hadn't any profile in xfce4-display-settings. I create one "default" and the warning is gone even with the option "always". Fixed.

@ eriefischer: Ok thanks, I'll do so and report.

Tamaranch · 2024-12-26 11:59:06

You don't have to explicitly create a default profile, it is created as soon as you save a display setup from xfce4-display-settings. It doesn't appear in the profile list, it's a special case, kind of technical profile. You can see it in xfce4-settings-editor, in the displays channel, under /Default.

@ eriefischer: Moving it to /usr/share/wallpapers (I had to create it) the warning is still there:

** (xfdesktop:63850): WARNING **: 13:01:12.081: Failed to register the newly set background with AccountsService '/usr/share/wallpapers/dragonkahn.jpg': GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs: L’interface « org.freedesktop.DisplayManager.AccountsService » n’existe pas

@ Tamaranch: Ok, I'll remove the one I created and see the result.

Added later 2 h 21 min 21 s:
I removed my created profile from xfce4-display-settings and set the display settings again and now it's working properly with "always" in advance settings.

The wallpaper still makes trouble...

I found this old bug report and wonder if you have AccountService installed?

Edit III: Even by selecting a wallpaper in the official folder '/usr/share/backgrounds/xfce/ I get the warning.
