Description:
I've tried to access my settings through the search bar in activities and tried to access user settings in Gnome, yet none of them will open. Additional info: * package version(s): 3.28.0 Steps to reproduce: Run in gnome-terminal: $ gnome-control-center |
This task depends upon
Terminal: "Failed to register: Timeout"
Journalctl: failed to rescan: Failed to parse /usr/share/applications/gnome-control-center.desktop file: cannot process file of type application/x-desktop
killall gnome-control-center | fix the problem and open work fine.
gnome-control-center fails to start with a segmentation fault occasionally. I have attached the journalctl log (which I think will not be very useful).
I've start noticing this since I installed and enabled cups (both enabling the systemd service and the socket alternatively).
I can more or less consistently reproduce it by opening the gnome-control-center, going to Devices->printers and closing the gnome-control-center. The next time it is launched it segfaults. There is one printer added.
local/gnome-control-center 3.28.0-1
local/system-config-printer 1.5.11-2
local/cups 2.2.7-1
local/cups-filters 1.20.1-3
local/cups-pk-helper 0.2.6-1
local/libcups 2.2.7-1
local/python-pycups 1.9.73-3
ANOTHER problem I have on my ancient Pentium+865G Dell is that some dialogues do not display properly, IMHO because the SILENTLY assume suffiocient OpenGL support without checking:-(

This bugreport is about not being able to start gnome-control-center from GNOME, which is a valid bug. Don't add other issues to it please.
