How can one debug budgie panel crashes? They happen pretty frequently these days (3-4 times a week). I don’t restart my laptop for a week or so usually (only on sleep in between). I think the panel starts crashing after a few days of the laptop being on and keeps crashing every few days then on. Th…

In the terminal you used to restart the panel any messages displayed when the panel stops? Note you need to keep running the same terminal. Also … check by a process of elimination what applets you are running. Around the time of the crashes anything in the systemd log? journalctl -ae --full

Thanks for the quick response. I’ll try keeping the terminal open after the command so we can see the output. (I’d close it once i ran the command, never noticed the output that keeps getting written to the terminal). I use a lot of applets (customisablity is one of the things I love about budgie).…

The panel order issue is because you have uninstalled one or more of the dropby, quicknote or showtime applets. You need to have those installed… but you don’t need then on the panel.

I do have those installed: [Screenshot%20from%202019-05-12%2017-28-51] Is there anything else that could cause this?

Another thing I noticed is that the restart commands output gets appended to nohup.out. Can contents of that help? (I have removed some unrelated info about outputs of some commands I happen to have run in the same terminal) nohup (copy).out.txt (798.4 KB)

There seems to be quite a few dropby issues - think I have fixed that. That fix will appear in our budgie-extras-daily PPA in a few hours time. I do see quite a few ** (budgie-panel:11268): CRITICAL **: 23:10:37.386: DisplayWidget.vala:161: Unknown network state, cannot show the good icon: NETWORK…

I’ll try the PPA you’ve mentioned (tommorow mostly, quite late here) I do use wired network at times (usb tethering specifically). The QT app must be kdeconnect I believe and I have started using kdeconnect lately. It shows an icon in the appindicator applet. Also I happen to have witnessed a cras…

What is the budgie-extras-daily ppa? Has the Global menu applet been updated to 0.7.2? Current is 0.7.1 and has a few bugs that supposedly have been fixed in the update.

Global menu is a third party applet available in the universe repo. If you have bugs then please file a bug report on launchpad.

Update: Crash got reproduced today and from backtrace I think it is because of the budgie-appmenu-applet [Screenshot%20from%202019-06-30%2010-08-42] Also seems I am on an outdated version. Will try filing a bug on launchpad/ try a newer version. Thanks for all the help in finding out the root ca…
