Hi, I'm the co-maintainer of the package.

Unfortunately, my laptop's gpu died a few days ago. So I cannot bring lots of changes to the package. The only thing I can do right now is upgrading the package along with mr1441 only.

Sorry for the situation and I hope you understand it. If you want to be a co-maintainer of this package, please contact fiestalake@disroot.org and/or the other maintainers. Thanks.

«I didn't observe changes in shell smoothness compared to 3.30, although realtime scheduling is inplace.»

Check realtime with chrt -p (PID of gnome-shell)

Is it working?

Many of your favorite extensions should work now, although some of them requires you to install from git or manually change some code. Also I used Unite instead of No Title Bar for now. The only extension that no longer works is "Trash" for now.

I didn't observe changes in shell smoothness compared to 3.30, although realtime scheduling is inplace.

I have the same issue emaxoda. It seems like it's trying to use source from Daniel Van Vugt instead of main repo.

@rodneyck, run pacman -S gsettings-desktop-schemas and then answer yes when asked to remove conflicting packages.

With 3.32, activities overview animation is 100% smooth.

How to check that realtime is working?

Entered sudo setcap CAP_SYS_NICE=+ep /usr/bin/gnome-shell gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['rt-scheduler']"

Rebooted. chrt -p PID (gnome-shell) and see:

pid 591's current scheduling policy: SCHED_OTHER pid 591's current scheduling priority: 0

Must be SCHED_RR|SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK?

@Saren use gnome-shell-extension-dash-to-dock-git from aur.

Saren commented on 2019-03-16 17:03 (UTC) (edited on 2019-03-16 17:05 (UTC) by Saren)

As always, many of your favorite extension will stop working on 3.32, this includes Arc Menu, Dash to dock, Trash, No Title Bar and Volume Mixer for me. Also the shell is incredibly laggy caused by some working but problematic extensions. It is smooth with all extensions off, but who on earth uses gnome without extensions?

I recommend to stay out of gnome 3.32 for now, this includes other gnome-related packages in official repo, which means you might want to update vulnerable packages only instead of pacman -Suy.

Terence commented on 2019-03-16 15:59 (UTC)

With the new patches, to get realtime scheduling for gnome-shell, do the following:

sudo setcap CAP_SYS_NICE=+ep /usr/bin/gnome-shell 
gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['rt-scheduler']"
