Downgraded mate-panel and mate-panel-libs to 1.10 and the panel is back on my screen. Looks like you didn't update all packages to 1.12 + restart the session. Yes I did - from dnf.log mate-applets i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 6.9 M mate-control-center i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 1.3 M mate-control-center-filesystem i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 14 k mate-desktop i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 104 k mate-desktop-libs i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 491 k mate-dictionary i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 5.8 M mate-disk-usage-analyzer i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 5.8 M mate-icon-theme noarch 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 12 M mate-media i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 287 k mate-menus i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 124 k mate-menus-libs i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 55 k mate-notification-daemon i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 130 k mate-panel i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 1.7 M mate-panel-libs i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 45 k mate-polkit i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 100 k mate-power-manager i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 3.0 M mate-screensaver i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 4.5 M mate-screenshot i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 50 k mate-search-tool i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 5.8 M mate-session-manager i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 344 k mate-settings-daemon i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 578 k mate-system-log i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 5.8 M mate-system-monitor i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 1.9 M mate-terminal i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 959 k mate-utils i686 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 12 k mate-utils-common noarch 1.12.0-1.fc22 updates 5.7 M Hmm, looks good so far. Mate-1.12 use now gnome-session as session name for dbus, which improved a lot of things in session management, because most apps use gnome-sesion as session name. This change affects several packages, if one package isn't update something like this can happen. Can you please check if all packages are updated, mentioned here. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-36f09a80b6 Its a bit strange because i tested the update on several boxes and submited all updates in one rush at bodhi. offtopic on You should also update mate-notification-daemon to 1.12.0-2.fc22 which fixes a regression, it's in updates-testing. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-6b0c60408f offtopic off If mate-panel-1.12.0-1 is installed + session restart, is the panel running? 'ps aux | grep mate-panel' We need to know if he is running and maybe unvisible or he didn't start. m-p should start via session management. [rave@mother ~]$ gsettings get org.mate.session.required-components panel 'mate-panel' I reinstalled 1.12 this morning. mate-notification-daemon is version 1.12 and mate-panel is running. frankzen 9140 0.0 1.4 92264 29020 ?

The new panel is now displaying. Sorry for the noise. This is really bizarre. To double check I reinstalled mate-notification-daemon-1.12.0-2.fc22.i686 and the panel is still displaying after a reboot! Before I installed the new one I had a look at the contents compared with what was installed on my machine. It seems the daemon was not installed in /usr/libexec! It now is in /usr/lib/exec. I then did another distro-sync, and the old version was reinstalled. But the panel is still displaying! So that was not the culprit. At this point I have reinstalled the new version and left well enough alone. Still don't know what the problem was. Hmm, the correct dir for i386 is /usr/libexec Or did you create by hand this dir? Maybe the package was corrupt. Well, now all is running fine? If yes, can we close the report? Btw. Was that your comment at bodhi ? https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/mate-notification-daemon-1.12.0-2.fc22#comment-360489 And mate-notification-daemon-1.12.0-1.fc22 has a regression, it crashes if notification has an image, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1284651 Sorry, typo. Getting a little punchy. Yes my comment at bodhi..you can ignore along with this bug report :) Good thing I have .2 installed in that case. I'd still like to know what the h was going on with the panel! All is well we can close. Thanks for the patience. Np, but why use videotron i386 boxes :) i noticed several reports with issues with i386 boxes which i couldn't reproduce on x86_64. I recall your name when i was reading a technical handbook about your videowall at berlin olympia stadium, germany. I was working there some years ago. but why use videotron i386 boxes :) ????? I recall your name when i was reading a technical handbook ???? I thought your email adress beacon is from a company which produced and sells videowalls. Anyways, looks like i'm wrong |
