Guake not working

[chasha420]

Sup guys...just now I had this problem where guake isn't working anymore. This is what I get:

Code: Select all

$ guake
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/guake", line 1429, in <module>
    if not main():
  File "/usr/bin/guake", line 1373, in main
    instance = Guake()
  File "/usr/bin/guake", line 633, in __init__
    self.hotkeys = guake.globalhotkeys.GlobalHotkey()
SystemError: NULL result without error in PyObject_Call


Man this is the only terminal I use....pretty much for everything...and without it I feel like I'm handicapped

Any help? Please.

It happens random it seems.

It happens random it seems.

Thanks for your consolation....but I'm pretty sure software is something that needs to be robust and should't just break down like that. I wonder what could cause it to be like that...before it happened though my Openbox session crashed and I was logged out back to the login screen.

Anyway I really wanna know how to fix this.

Oh, I have the same issue.
Guake stopped working after last updates (about 5 days ago).
In my case python was upgraded so maybe this is the cause...
I have python-2.7.3-r2, guake-0.4.4, linux-sabayon-3.3-r4, 32bit, gnome 3

In the meantime I've installed tilda - it works pretty cool - just for the time when guake isn't working

Wow dude I've done the same thing...installed Tilda and customised it etc. but one functionality that I'm missing from tilda is the open new tab bar

For that I have to manually open a screen session and navigate using the hotkeys which is reptitive and I think not as efficient as using the arrow keys in guake.

Anyway, anyone else has this same issue?

Ctrl+Shift+T - same as in Guake
