f.lux not working anymore on ubuntu-16.04

[pavanyogi]

Before opening a new issue for a bug, please:

1. Check that you're not experiencing an existing issue. In particular, Issue #27 is very common.

2. Install xflux-gui from source if you used the PPA and the PPA is stale. This is easy to do and ensures your issue isn't already fixed.

Thanks!

I installed f.lux recently. But I didn't see any difference on the screen before and after the installation. seems like f.lux not working on the Ubuntu-16.04. Please revert back here if anyone got it working on Ubuntu-16.04.

I got the same problem on Ubuntu 19.04 disco (x86-64)
Installed from the PPA, running, but when I try to preview anything there's absolutely no difference. I will tell later if a reboot fixed.

[Minabsapi]

The reboot didn't fix. It's definitly not working for me neither.

[pavanyogi]

It won't work for Ubuntu-16.04 or greater. I switched to redshift. Follow the article from here: https://linoxide.com/tools/install-use-redshift-ubuntu-16-04/

[Minabsapi]

Alright, I will try it. Thank you !

I have the same issue on 16.04. When running from terminal I get the following assertion error when I try to preview the color:
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/fluxgui/fluxapp.py:53: Warning: g_object_set_data: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
gtk.main()
