[WIP] Add a dialog to unmount devices when using Wayland - #3558
Conversation
|
I'm not sure this is the way to fix this, or the right place. In x11 sessions, the gnome vfs backend will show a busy dialog to prevent unmounting if a drive is in use: This is what we should see in wayland sessions also... |
Except it isn't shown and instead crashes as pointed out in the linked issue. So how are we proceeding with this? |
|
With the modification that I implemented, in Wayland a dialog also appears informing what is in use, it is a simpler dialog, it does not detect the program icon, but it is working, while in X11 it continues exactly with the dialog that was already used. The text is in Brazilian Portuguese because it is my native language, it is the text received through GVFS, so it is the same text of the dialog that already existed and will use the system language. |
|
are there any updates on this? |
|
This is being implemented for the Cinnamon session in linuxmint/cinnamon#13145, and will eventually provide this dialog for both x11 and wayland. I'm not sure we'd need this at that point, but I'm leaving it open until that other PR is resolved. |

operations in Wayland sessions. This occurs in environments where org.Gtk.MountOperationHandler has no provider/owner. Fixes: linuxmint/wayland#134. ref: #3558.

The dialog that confirms the unmount of devices that are in use by some program uses resources that are incompatible with wayland and generates segmentation fault. I added a check so that in case you are using wayland, another dialog that is compatible can be created.
Resolves the problem reported in: linuxmint/wayland#134
