Getting xsession-errors after Unity Lens install

  • 772

I apologize in advance if I am leaving something out here. Please let me know what additional info is required, and i will be happy to post it.

Can you tell me what these error messages are, and how I can go about resolving them?

I am also getting Nautilus errors logged here. I do not remember what lenses I installed, or from where (Software Center, manual install, etc).

  1. As far as I can tell all those are mostly harmless. The call method errors happen to me every time as well, but the scopes/lenses are still working. I suspect they just take a bit to start. The missing icons are interesting and I've been trying to track that one down without any success. However, the dash looks fine to me, including icons.

    So in summary, I think this is all safe to ignore. The missing icons might be a bug and I will file it as soon as I can figure out what's going on in more details.

    Edit: bug filed for the missing icons: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity-lens-applications/+bug/932212

    I hope to post a patch to it today.
