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 performance patches are by default enabled.

Maybe temporarily but returned to patch instead git revert.

I got gnome 3.28.0 from "testing" now, but no update to this package. I tried modifying the PKGBUILD to make it build from 3.28 commit, but the revert didn't apply cleanly:

error: could not revert 383ba566b... Call cogl_xlib_renderer_set_threaded_swap_wait_enabled()

With diff:

++<<<<<<< HEAD + / XInitThreads() is needed to use the "threaded swap wait" functionality + * in Cogl - see meta_renderer_x11_create_cogl_renderer(). We call it here + * to hopefully call it before any other use of XLib. + / + XInitThreads(); ++======= + clutter_x11_request_reset_on_video_memory_purge (); ++>>>>>>> parent of 383ba566b... Call cogl_xlib_renderer_set_threaded_swap_wait_enabled()

It seems there has been new changes to the patch we want reverted, however my performance using the official mutter is crap again so it doesn't seem to fix it. There might be a resolution to the conflict that ends up with a correct state, but I haven't looked hard enough at the code to say yet.

And even if it was possible, I'm not sure how to resolve this in PKGBUILD yet, or how to make it use my locally created patch either.

Instead, I'll just post my progress here. ;)

Ideally this would be solved properly, either in mutter, gnome-shell or the nvidia driver, whichever is the culprit.

I can not compile:

EDIT: I found the solution here: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/51578

And thank you so much for this package by the way ^_^

This patch fixes the pipewire 0.1.7 problem without downgrading: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1517749

jeckhack commented on 2017-12-06 00:30 (UTC)

BTW if you have window max\unmax animation stutter after applying the workaround in question, add CLUTTER_DRIVER=gl3 to /etc/environment

For reference, see: https://developer.gnome.org/clutter/stable/running-clutter.html

From what I see, arch bumped pipewire package to 0.1.7 a few days ago and it has different file structure, i.e. /usr/include/spa/pod-parser.h is now /usr/include/spa/pod/parser.h, and other files needed to build mutter are missing too. It's just becoming a nightmare : ( ######### OK This is funny. To build mutter you have to downgrade pipewire to 0.1.6 But this isn't the end. You also have to manually create missing pod-parser.h, which is missing due to a bug in 0.1.6 as well. ( https://github.com/PipeWire/pipewire/issues/43 ) https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PipeWire/pipewire/0.1.6/spa/include/spa/pod-parser.h Copy this to /usr/include/spa/pod-parser.h after pipewire downgrade. Now mutter builds.

When installing with yaourt i've this error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'codegen' make[2]: *** [Makefile:2970: meta-dbus-idle-monitor.c] Error 1 make[2]: uscita dalla directory "/tmp/pamac-build-fabrizio/mutter-781835-workaround/src/mutter/src" make[1]: *** [Makefile:484: all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: uscita dalla directory "/tmp/pamac-build-fabrizio/mutter-781835-workaround/src/mutter" make: *** [Makefile:414: all] Error 2 ==> ERRORE: Si è verificato un errore in build(). EDIT: worked with export PYTHONPATH="/usr/share/glib-2.0" like commented previously but several GNOME packages were uninstalled and my system not start. Fixed reinstalling Gnome missing files and old mutter

@jeckhack Prismatik (monitor backlight control program which captures screen constantly) still makes gnome-shell lag without reverting the mutter commit.
