If you have a problem during any system update with mutter-performance & gnome-shell-performance, please install mutter & gnome-shell packages from the main repository and do full upgrade first, then build the performance packages later.

If you are using [gnome-unstable] and [extra-testing] repositories, use gnome-shell-performance-unstable

To enable a specific MR in the Merge Requests List, add an line "_merge_requests_to_use+=('<MR number>')" at the end of PKGBUILD. (Because if you edit the line directly you can be able to end up with merge conflict upon updates.)

If you are getting errors like fatal: bad revision '73e8cf32' while building this package, refer to PKGBUILD and see which patches caused this. Then, go to the related URLs, replace the commit hashes. If there are conflicts, comment out the patches.

Please notify me in comment section if this happens.

The optional patches for performance and fixes are by default enabled.

Warning: Before making a report of something broken, make sure it is not caused by an extension or a custom theme!

@Saren MR 276 has been rebased and this time it can't be applied cleanly on 3.30 so I manually applied it and generated a diff that is now used instead. I also added a new patch which should improve the extension system.

@Terence, rebooted but now the workspace switcher is completely back to its usual behavior (20-30fps I think using the mouse to zoom in).

Not touching the workspace bar on the right and using the wheel it feels as smooth as a game HUD though with your Mutter workaround pkgbuild lol

Changing this in PKGBUILD resolves the problem with dependencies:

provides=(gnome-shell)

to:

provides=(gnome-shell gnome-shell=$pkgver)

Credits to @Lolix from Manjaro forum.

Pumpi commented on 2018-12-24 20:21 (UTC)

Changed PKGBUILD from:

provides=(gnome-shell)
conflicts=(gnome-shell)

to:

provides=(gnome-shell>=3.18)
conflicts=(gnome-shell>=3.18)

allows me to start the instalation but i get other errors. I have opened a topic on the Manjaro Forum to get some help. There is also the whole log of the installation which is to long to be copied here.

Im getting the following error:

[dawid@dawid-pc ~]$ cd gnome-shell-performance
[dawid@dawid-pc gnome-shell-performance]$ makepkg -scCi
==> WARNING: A package has already been built, installing existing package...

[dawid@dawid-pc gnome-shell-performance]$

Any idea how to overcome that? Im trying to get smooth experience on Surface Pro 3 as it is working fine but i have repeatedly stutters with animations and sluggishness with browser scrolling and animations

Update: detect mutter-781835-workaround before applying MR276

Vash63 commented on 2018-12-11 20:16 (UTC)

Update: Figured out what was wrong with GDM while reviewing the MR on gitlab - it is dependent on https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/283/commits

This package as-is will not work without this MR, which is included in mutter-781835-workaround but I was not using that package at the time (using my own since that package caused some issues for me due to MR168 on it a while back).

Still unable to load GDM or gnome-shell with these patches. Have Intel integrated video adapter.
