Arch Linux User Repository

please update to latest version and see if those errors are fixed. if not, try cleaning your Notion config folder. Fully quit the notion app, and then run the following:

rm ~/.config/Notion -rf

Note that you will have to login again after running this.

I was able to fix the issue with windows decorations by rebuilding the package using mac version instead of windows. I also fixed the tray icon and some other errors, made some checks to avoid duplicated windows, and Notion seems to work a lot smoother now.

Here is the repo with the modifications I made: https://github.com/mateushonorato/notion-app-electron-aur

The icon being used as the tray and app icon comes from Papirus Icon Pack. @AsukaMinato feel free to merge any of those modifications in this package or to ask me anything about how I made them.

If using fcitx5 and sometimes when you type faster, some letters will go directly into the text box and will not appear in the candidate area of the input method.

In ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini write gtk-im-module=fcitx

by default it uses Xwayland, if you want to use Wayland

if you use kwin

notion-app  --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland --enable-wayland-ime

if other

notion-app --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland --enable-wayland-ime --wayland-text-input-version=3

NOTES

• This application has a tray icon. To quit the application completely, press Ctrl+Q.
• To access the application menu, hold Alt for a moment instead of pressing Alt.

KNOWN ISSUES

• Stub Wayland icon is shown in some places when Ozone platform is Wayland

Hi, I can't open Notion anymore due to what looks like an issue with Electron's app-updater (?). Basically upon startup it looks for a yml file that is not there, errors out and hangs without actually starting the UI

11:17:32.390 › Error: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/opt/Notion/resources/app-update.yml'
11:17:32.391 › {
  level: 'info',
  from: 'autoUpdater',
  type: 'unsupportedLinuxApp',
  error: {
    name: 'Error',
    message: "ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/opt/Notion/resources/app-update.yml'",
    stack: "Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/opt/Notion/resources/app-update.yml'"
  }
}

I see there are GitHub issues related to this (e.g. this one, and maybe this one). Did anyone solve it for this specific package? Thanks

Update: I installed electron manually and it works now.

I did install the app correctly though yay but when I'm opening it notion doesn't start. and there is no process called notion started in htop. does anyone has the same issue ?

@kidonng Ctrl+Q doesn't close the tray icon, only the app.

@wils0n Press Ctrl+Q to exit, it's an Electron shortcut.

In the last update there is a tray icon, but I can't close the app from there. Is there any way to do this.

Great job, voted, thanks a lot.

Technically yes, but it's nice to have separate config for different apps.

I won't object to removing the launcher though, people who need that can write their own.

I just know that it's unnecessary to use a notion-flag file. Since it can read electron25-flag directly.
