Mate - marco 12/05/2023 - 12th may 2023

since update from 12/05/2023 , i have lost connexion on login ,
screen stay black after login , no error log in journalctl appears
( tested with 3 kernels )

is there a way to check another log or restart marco ?

I’m assuming you mean and update from 12/05/22 since 12/05/23 hasn’t got here yet. What connection are you loosing at login? What DE/WM Which Kernel? Normal/LTS/Zen Which Login Manager? What video?

back in time or back to the future :wink:

@Stephane
something like:

marco --replace

just tried in VM and it lags on login but after time Desktop shows up…
Could you simply try switching TTYs ?
CtrlAltF4

CtrlAltF7

CtrlAltF1

to be more precise ,

  • date are JJ/MM/SSAA on my side
  • screen login appears , but just after login , desktop not appears , no log or error log in journalctl ( i have logged with TTy Ctrl + Alt F3 to F6 , F7 go back to Desktop )
  • i have tried startx , it works ( windows from 90 appears ) , but no marco
  • i have seen marco start is delayed but no other log or error

DE mate ( no problems on others side Xfce / Qt / sway )

yes i can totally reproduce… and just checked it is not the DM (lightdm) i downgraded marco and it starts right away like it should… so seems related to marco i think…

sudo downgrade marco

and choose 1.26.0-1 …
