How to fix bug with Cinnamon desktop slideshow?


I use ArcoLinux + Cinnamon. One time I found that my desktop background slideshow is turned on. But I didn't enable slideshow and it isn't even enabled in the settings.

When I change background settings (either background picture and slideshow params) they are running for 0-5 minutes and then all comes back. I tried to restart computer, to restart cinnamon (Troubleshoot section in panel context menu), to restore all settings to default (Troubleshoot section in panels context menu).

I also noted that in Melange Cinnamon Debugger no my background settings changes are logged.

Can anyone help with finding what went wrong and how to fix it?


Solution

  • Problem was in Variety. I don't know how (maybe with the system upgrade) but configs changed to enabled slideshow.
