no visble effect of any keybindings

[titaniumbones]

Installed under arch linux, gnome 3.30. stystem mostly up to date. No visible effect of any keybindings. Can you help me diagnose?

[trenkert]

have the same issue... is slinger still maintained and functional?

[torkelrogstad]

I had the same issue when installing through the official Gnome extension manager.

Compiling from source worked flawlessy. It seems like the newest version hasn't been pushed, something which shouldn't be too hard to fix. Ping @timbertson

I've uploaded a new version (awaiting review), although that might not be the problem.

This is what I get on startup:

(from journalctl --user -f | grep gnome-shell)

If anyone can send me logs from a version which isn't working, that may help.

The keys don't work for me either, using the latest version from extensions.gnome.org (it's now published, no longer in the review queue), and Ubuntu 18.10 with Gnome Shell 3.30.1.

journalctl --user -f | grep gnome-shell shows the same output as in your case, except for the second line (which I don't know what it means):

Ah, sorry folks. I was running two branches (master and 3.2x), and hadn't actually uploaded a zip from master to extensions.gnome.org. Now I have, so when it's reviewed it'll be version 3 and should work on gnome-shell 3.30. Which I'm now running myself, finally :)
