#1373 closed defect (fixed)

Suppress race condition with Journal appearing on sugar startup

Reported by: alsroot Owned by: tomeu
Priority: Unspecified by Maintainer Milestone: Unspecified
Component: Sugar Version: 0.84.x
Severity: Unspecified Keywords: r+ olpc-0.84
Cc: quidam Distribution/OS: Unspecified
Bug Status: Unconfirmed

Description

Can't find 100% way to reproduce it in 0.86 but some time Journal's window doesn't appear in activity list.

In my mind in 0.84 we have the same issue when after sugar startup top window was Journal and not Home view.

In my mind problem code is gobject.idle_add(setup_journal_cb) in sugar-session and active-window-changed callback when sugar switch zoom level to ZOOM_ACTIVITY in _update_zoom_level().

Looks like we can suppress this issue in 0.84 just by updating matchbox-window-manager(at least it works for me). So, I'm uploading new matchbox-window-manager to trisquel-edu ppa.

But it also happens with metacity, right?

The core idea is opening sugar windows after WM startup.

It looks like a great idea to me. Only concern is that we should check that startup on the XO-1 is not slower, though by the looks of it I think it could be even faster.
