Using konsole has nothing to do with this.
Changed the files as mentioned in the article below:
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtweak/gshellwrapper.py
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtweak/gsettings.py
Now have full access to all shell extensions. A few don't work (alt+tab one for example) but they are all accessible, and there is no longer an error from gnome-tweak-tool
.
Steps
Replace lines 48-61 of /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtweak/gshellwrapper.py
:
class GnomeShell:
EXTENSION_STATE = {
"ENABLED" : 1,
"DISABLED" : 2,
"ERROR" : 3,
"OUT_OF_DATE" : 4
}
EXTENSION_TYPE = {
"SYSTEM" : 1,
"PER_USER" : 2
}
with these:
class GnomeShell:
EXTENSION_STATE = {
"ENABLED" : 1,
"DISABLED" : 2,
"ERROR" : 3,
"OUT_OF_DATE" : 4,
"DISABLED" : 6
}
EXTENSION_TYPE = {
"SYSTEM" : 1,
"PER_USER" : 2
}
This should get all extensions working.
Lastly, to clear up the remaining errors, replace lines 44-52 of /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtweak/gsettings.py
:
#summary is compulsory, description is optional
summary = key.getElementsByTagName("summary")[0].childNodes[0].data
try:
description = key.getElementsByTagName("description")[0].childNodes[0].data
except:
description = ""
self._schema[key.getAttribute("name")] = {
"summary" : summary,
"description" : description
}
with these:
#summary is compulsory, description is optional
try:
summary = key.getElementsByTagName("summary")[0].childNodes[0].data
description = key.getElementsByTagName("description")[0].childNodes[0].data
except:
description = ""
summary = "No Summary"
self._schema[key.getAttribute("name")] = {
"summary" : summary,
"description" : description
}

Are you logged in to GNOME Shell? Also, have you installed any extension?
As far as I know, the extensions only show up when you're logged into GNOME Shell. In Unity for instance, the Extensions tab is empty.

Try checking the version of Gnome Shell set for the extension. In metadata.json file in the folder of the extension, find "shell-version". It's one of the most common reason extensions won't work. To get version of Gnome Shell, "gnome-shell --version" in terminal. Try installing the looking glass extension to find the error message if the above didn't work.
