Public bug reported: As per request in #409621 I'm opening this new bug report.
The issue is that remote sessions to a NoMachine NX Server doesn't get the correct theme. This has been present since release of Jaunty and is also present using Karmic and libxklavier15 4.0-4ubuntu5. Running gnome-settings-deamon in a terminal on the remote desktop yields: Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1037.0". Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1037.0". Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1037.0". Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1037.0". Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1037.0". The program 'gnome-settings-daemon' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)'. (Details: serial 105 error_code 1 request_code 150 minor_code 8) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) Reportedly there are two workarounds: 1. Create ~/.gtkrc-2.0 with lines 'gtk-theme-name="Human"' and 'gtk- icon-theme-name = "Human"' which forces the Human theme of course. 2. Downgrade to libxklavier15 3.9-0ubuntu1 I've verified workaround 1 The issue is also described in length here: http://ubuntu-virginia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1236402 ** Affects: libxklavier (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- NoMachine NX remote sessions doesn't get correct theme https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/462257 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
