#265941 — Connamon: Desklet "Network usage monitor" fills logfiles

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] — view raw

Hello,

I try to use the desklet Network usage monitor which I can download 
using the Desklet control.

It downloads and installs without issues, and when I try to activate it 
it is not shown on the desktop. vnstat and vnstati are installed.

Looking into the logs with journalctl, the following error message is 
shown 3 times every 2 seconds:

Jan 14 08:07:58 laptop1 cinnamon[2643]: JS ERROR: TypeError: 
Clutter.Texture is not a constructor
_updateGraph/<@/home/chris/.local/share/cinnamon/desklets/netusage@30yavash.com/4.0/desklet.js:144:29
spawnCommandLineAsync/<@/usr/share/cinnamon/js/misc/util.js:206:17

The code around line 144 in desklet.js is:

            if (this._device != "null") {
                if (!this.useExtendedDisplay) { this.extendedDisplay = 
"-s" };
                let image = 
`${path}/vnstatImage_${this._device}_${this.extendedDisplay}.png`;
                let command = 'vnstati ' + this.extendedDisplay + ' -ne 
-i ' + this._device + ' -o ' + image ;
//             GLib.spawn_command_line_async(command);

                Util.spawnCommandLineAsync(command, () => {
                     let l = new Clutter.BinLayout();
                     let b = new Clutter.Box();
                     let c = new Clutter.Texture({keep_aspect_ratio: 
true, filter_quality: 2, filename: image });
                     b.set_layout_manager(l);
*                    b.add_actor(c);*
                     this.imageWidget.destroy_all_children();
                     this.imageWidget.set_child(b);
                 });
              }


I used Alf+F2 and "lg" to get more insights, but was not successful. I 
can see that Clutter is provided with the package cinnamon-common, but I 
could not find the definition of Clutter.Texture. But I am not a 
Javscript developer, so just tried to grep around a little bit.

I read that whole Clutter is already unmaintained. Does it look like 
those Clutter based Cinnamon stuff is slowly fading out?

Hello,

that issue was already reported "upstream" and is fixed in the meantime. 
The issue was a compatibility issue with Clutter.

Cheers
