What I use as a workaround is defining the latitude and longitude at startup. I don't travel that much to benefit from the service to look it up every time I boot.
1) use http://itouchmap.com/latlong.html or any other service to find your latitude/longitude 2) adjust the startup command of redshift to: gtk-redshift -l <latitude>:<longitude> Example of latitude/longitude of Amsterdam for redshift: gtk-redshift -l 52.37:4.9 Adjusting the startup command in Ubuntu 11.10: Start the dash and enter "startup applications", select Redshift and click "Edit", adjust the command as mentioned above. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/868904 Title: Redshift fails to start with session due to geoclue failure To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/redshift/+bug/868904/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
