Package: cinnamon Followup-For: Bug #1092580 Oh, never find, we can probably put this down to user error. For those encountering this bug report via Google or wherever, my problem was caused by my .xsession containing just "cinnamon" (or "cinnamon2d") instead of "cinnamon-session" (or its subvariants). My bad.
Amongst other things, I now have working background wallpaper too... Note to self (and others): for valid values for ~/.xsession, try `update-alternatives --config x-session-manager` for hints. -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (400, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-28-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_BAD_PAGE, TAINT_DIE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages cinnamon depends on: ii cinnamon-common 6.2.9-1 ii cinnamon-control-center 6.4.1-1 ii cinnamon-desktop-data 6.2.0-1 ii cinnamon-l10n 6.2.2-1 ii cinnamon-screensaver 6.4.0-1 ii cinnamon-session 6.2.1-1 ii cinnamon-settings-daemon 6.2.0-1+b1 ii cjs 6.4.0-1 ii cups-pk-helper 0.2.6-2.1 ii dbus 1.16.0-1 ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend 0.40.0-4+b3 ] ii gir1.2-accountsservice-1.0 23.13.9-7 ii gir1.2-caribou-1.0 0.4.21-9 ii gir1.2-cmenu-3.0 6.4.0-1 ii gir1.2-cvc-1.0 6.2.0-1 ii gir1.2-ecal-2.0 3.54.2-1 ii gir1.2-edataserver-1.2 3.54.2-1 ii gir1.2-gdkpixbuf-2.0 2.42.12+dfsg-1+b1 ii gir1.2-gkbd-3.0 3.28.1-1+b2 ii gir1.2-glib-2.0 2.82.4-1 ii gir1.2-gsound-1.0 1.0.3-3.2+b4 ii gir1.2-gtk-3.0 3.24.43-4 ii gir1.2-ical-3.0 3.0.19-1 ii gir1.2-keybinder-3.0 0.3.2-1.1+b3 ii gir1.2-nemo-3.0 6.2.8-1 ii gir1.2-nm-1.0 1.50.1-1 ii gir1.2-nma-1.0 1.10.6-5 ii gir1.2-notify-0.7 0.8.3-1+b2 ii gir1.2-pango-1.0 1.55.0+ds-3 ii gir1.2-polkit-1.0 125-2 ii gir1.2-soup-3.0 3.6.1-1 ii gir1.2-timezonemap-1.0 0.4.6-7+b1 ii gir1.2-upowerglib-1.0 1.90.6-2 ii gir1.2-xapp-1.0 2.8.6-1 ii gkbd-capplet 3.28.1-1+b2 ii gnome-backgrounds 47.0-1 ii gnome-themes-extra 3.28-3 ii gsettings-desktop-schemas 47.1-1 ii iso-flags-png-320x240 1.0.2-2 ii libatk-bridge2.0-0t64 2.54.0-1 ii libatk1.0-0t64 2.54.0-1 ii libc6 2.40-4 ii libcairo2 1.18.2-2 ii libcinnamon-desktop4t64 6.2.0-1 ii libcinnamon-menu-3-0 6.4.0-1 ii libcjs0 6.4.0-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-0 2.42.12+dfsg-1+b1 ii libgirepository-1.0-1 1.82.0-3 ii libgles2 1.7.0-1+b2 ii libglib2.0-0t64 2.82.4-1 ii libglib2.0-bin 2.82.4-1 ii libgstreamer1.0-0 1.24.10-2 ii libgtk-3-0t64 3.24.43-4 ii libjxl-gdk-pixbuf 0.10.4-2 ii libmuffin0t64 6.2.0-3 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.55.0+ds-3 ii libpolkit-agent-1-0 125-2 ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 125-2 ii libx11-6 2:1.8.10-2 ii libxapp1 2.8.6-1 ii libxfixes3 1:6.0.0-2+b3 ii libxml2 2.12.7+dfsg+really2.9.14-0.2+b1 ii mesa-utils 9.0.0-2+b1 ii muffin 6.2.0-3 ii nemo 6.2.8-1 ii network-manager-gnome 1.36.0-3+b1 ii pkexec 125-2 ii policykit-1-gnome 0.105-8+b1 ii psmisc 23.7-1 ii python3 3.12.8-1 ii python3-dbus 1.3.2-5+b4 ii python3-distro 1.9.0-1 ii python3-gi 3.50.0-3+b1 ii python3-gi-cairo 3.50.0-3+b1 ii python3-pampy 2.0.2-1 ii python3-pexpect 4.9-3 ii python3-pil 10.4.0-1+b1 ii python3-pyinotify 0.9.6-4 ii python3-requests 2.32.3+dfsg-1 ii python3-setproctitle 1.3.3-1+b5 ii python3-tinycss2 1.4.0-1 ii python3-tz 2024.2-1 Versions of packages cinnamon recommends: pn blueman <none> pn cinnamon-core <none> pn gnome-online-accounts-gtk <none> pn gnome-terminal <none> pn inxi <none> ii libcanberra-pulse 0.30-17+b1 pn libxapp-gtk3-module <none> pn metacity-common <none> pn touchegg <none> pn xapp-sn-watcher <none> pn xdg-desktop-portal-gtk <none> pn xdg-desktop-portal-xapp <none> Versions of packages cinnamon suggests: pn cinnamon-desktop-environment <none> pn cinnamon-doc <none> pn python3-opencv <none> -- no debconf information
