Cadence fails to start

I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for this, so feel free to move the topic.

Basically, Cadence will not start. It looks like the fix is straightforward according to this page:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3101 ... e-qvariant
but I'm not a python programmer so haven't a clue how to get it working. Here is the error:

Code: Select all

> dbus-launch cadence
Using Tray Engine 'Qt'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/cadence/src/cadence.py", line 2319, in <module>
    gui = CadenceMainW()
  File "/usr/share/cadence/src/cadence.py", line 751, in __init__
    self.loadSettings(True)
  File "/usr/share/cadence/src/cadence.py", line 2257, in loadSettings
    self.restoreGeometry(self.settings.value("Geometry", ""))
TypeError: QWidget.restoreGeometry(QByteArray): argument 1 has unexpected type 'QVariant'
Any help greatly appreciated!
