Description Pierre Fortin 2014-05-28 15:38:07 CEST

Description of problem: Opening as a generic problem because I'm starting to suspect a common issue is at the root of all these issues.

1. Task Manager often not updated. A few moments ago, task was identified as a Firefox window task, yet when I clicked on it, the list of emacs windows popped up.  After moving the mouse around, the TM finally updated.

2. Digital clock randomly updates. Turned on seconds; but updates are rare. This morning, clock "stopped" at 08:15 and never updated until I clicked on it at 08:58...

3. Added Analog clock to see if 2 was a clock issue.  This clock tracks the digital clock exactly; so clock updates are missing to both clocks.

4. Unlike in mga2 (skipped mga3), claws-mail tray icons in System Tray do not update until mouse leaves main claws-mail window.

I'm now wondering if my bugs about wrong SSID on network icon in System Tray is also due to missing widget updates...  see bug 12454

on every desktop ?

Comment 2 Pierre Fortin 2014-08-13 14:44:30 CEST

Finally got frustrated enough with all this, so I did a fresh install (this machine was updated from mga2) and everything(?) seems to be fine now.  Closing for now...  would be nice to have a RESOLVED + RE-INSTALLED category.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED
