[Bug 1901507] Re: Cairo Dock moves to left screen (screen 1) even if position is set to screen 0

 

Hi, thank you for your time taking a look at this.
I will tell you what this log contain based on your description.

So i killed the autostarted Cairo dock.
Then run 

$ cairo-dock -l debug > cairoDockDebug29102020.log

(cairo-dock:1186): Gtk-WARNING **: 14:38:03.585: Theme parsing error:
<data>:7:1467: The :insensitive pseudo-class is deprecated. Use
:disabled instead.

(cairo-dock:1186): Gtk-WARNING **: 14:38:03.586: Theme parsing error: <data>:7:3649: The :inconsistent pseudo-class is deprecated. Use :indeterminate instead.
sh: 1: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cairo-dock/cairo-dock-launcher-API-daemon: not found


While the log was gathered i locked the screen, let the screens go into energy saving/off and with their switch light blinking.

Moved the mouse to activate the screen, on the login screen i logged on. 
Cairo dock was indeed again in the wrong side, so on screen1 instead of 0. 

To fix it while log is being gathered i hovered the cairo dock on the right screen, this activates/shows cairo on the left screen. 
Quickly right click on it and go to configuration.
-> click position -> see that it is set to screen 0 but it is still not shown there - > select screen 1 and save, screen stays on screen one -> select screen 0 and save, finally cairo goes to show on screen 0 again as described in the bug.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to reproduce and establish what the problem is.

Title:
  Cairo Dock moves to left screen (screen 1) even if position is set to
  screen 0

Status in Cairo-Dock Core:
  New

Bug description:
  When CairoDock is started, or the screen locks itself or goes to
  screensaver and then back I get the dock displayed in the wrong side
  of the screen. I will clarify

  1 - use case start up
  I login 
  Move the mouse where the dock is supposed to be, bottom of screen 0 (right)
  Cairo displays on screen 1 (left)

  2- screensaver - screenlock
  I run use case 3, position is good
  I go for a coffee and screensaver starts after a while or lock screen
  I come back and cairo is on screen 1 instead of screen 0
  I run use case 3 to fix it

  3 - Reconfigure position
  I open cairo config
  Set the screen to 1, save, position does not change, stays on the left
  Set the screen back to 0, finally Cairo moves to the right

  Above is quite frustrating. I spend a lot of time doing step 3 every
  day. I did not have this problem with the Radeon AMX card. I recently
  installed an Nvidia RTX 2070 and got this problem.

  Checked for current bugs. But look to different from mine

  Checked recurrent problems but could not see some matching this
  problem.
