The current accepted translation has a typo, making the already confusing option even more so: the word ”on” shouldn’t be there. The suggestion from Jani Järvi fixes this correctly.

Complex might be more appropriate (as with the previous), but requires a curator I think.

I can reproduce the crash at will with the steps I listed above, so I don’t have to wait for it to happen. It also doesn’t forcibly log me out, so I can enter those commands by just having a terminal window present when I trigger the issue. But I logged out here (after triggering) anyway since you instructed me to log in, in case it matters.

Also, there’s lots of noise in these from Boinc, thanks to #1876313.

@FlexW I’ve now rebased and pushed the changes, hope this works for you. I don’t see a way for me to merge this myself here, ”Only those with write access to this repository can merge pull requests.”

1. There’s nothing in /var/crash
2. There are no reports on the page for this computer.
3. Done, still nothing in /var/crash.

I don’t know if this means it’s not a true crash, although visually all the indications are there.

I also verified that this reproduces when using a newly-created user (with the only change from defaults for it being switching to Wayland), and also on another computer (also running 20.04). I am limited to using the one mouse that I have, so that all testing so far has been with the same mouse.

# Steps to reproduce
0. have a mouse with horizontal scrolling functionality (mine is a Microsoft Comfort Mouse 4500 with a tilting action for horizontal scroll)
1. move mouse pointer over the dock
2. use the mouse scroller to scroll horizontally

# What I expect to happen
Nothing

# What happens
Mouse pointer and everything on screen freezes. After a few seconds it unfreezes, but all the icons from the dock are missing. I have to log out and back in to restore the dock.

# Other info
Slightly similar to LP #1875106, but I’m not using imwheel.

I am using Wayland.

Syslog seems to always point to this one function: ”The offending callback was get_preferred_height(), a vfunc”. I’ll attach the relevant part from one crash.

I can add that to options.rst, but the terse explanation still seems pretty meaningless; at least for me there’s no visible difference when I run nextcloud with --background compared to running without.

This could be due to #2333 though, if running without --background is supposed to open the main dialog (which has never worked on Focal). If so, I’d mention this too, something like: ”Launch the application in the background (without opening the main dialog).”

@FlexW Not really, as I don’t know what the parameter does… due to it being undocumented :) Editing options.rst shouldn’t be an issue, I’d just need to know what it should say about --background.

Preface

Ticking the ”Launch on System Startup” box in the desktop client’s General settings tab (correctly) adds a .desktop file under ~/.config/autostart/, with the following Exec line:

    Exec="/usr/bin/nextcloud" --background

Expected behaviour

The effect of --background should be mentioned in options.rst (and the resulting online documentation).

Actual behaviour

The --background parameter is undocumented.

Is there any way to combine the two-step method into one pipe? To output the raw bitstream to stdout, and remux from stdin?
