  • I think it’s possible that the filesystem ran out of inodes, so even though there is space on disk, there is no space in the filesystem metadata to store new files.

    Now, I don’t know off the top of my head how to check this, but I assume the answer is on the internet somewhere (am on phone and can’t help much more than this, sorry)



  • Reread the OP. They say:

    not on GNOME, because you have a panel at the top

    And

    when usign GTK apps on those [non-GNOME] desktops

    So you would not “access the controls above the app”, because having controls above the app is not covered by this scenario.

    The scenario is:

    1. You don’t have a top panel
    2. You have a maximized GTK app

    Which makes the close button be in the corner of the screen, but without actually extending to it.

    On topic: never knew this was a problem, guess I got spoiled by the Qt environment

    In my somewhat limited but relevant experience, the amount of platform specific bugs is indeed that low. I mean, there’s of course a layer of platform-specific low level stuff which is highly subject to platform specific issues, but once you go above that layer and into game code proper, most bugs are just bugs.

    I didn’t fix 400 “Linux-only” bugs, but I did fix dozens of “seems Linux specific” and “only happened when at least one Linux client was connected” bugs, and a grand total of 2 were caused by platform differences. And of those two, zero were Linux specific. The platform difference in this case was about how different compilers optimise non-crashy types of UB.

    Of course, we don’t want UB at all so the fix is to remove it.
