[gentoo-user] Gnome problem (?)
Hello, After upgrading xorg to 1.9 now Gnome is not able to start session. This is the message I get after login in using GDM Protocol not supported by server. xmodmap: unable to open display ':0' which: no keychain in [PATH] *** gnome-session: 32574: WARNING ** cannot open display If I run startx, everything works no complaints. I have an nvidia card, and I have the latest one (apparently running well). Any suggestion/idea? Thanks in advance -- Victor

Maybe you find something in ~/.xsession-errors, but I doubt that. There is also ~/.gnomerc-errors, have a look there. Did you try removing (or better moving) your ~/.gnome* and ~/.gconf* directories? Maybe it's a configuration problem and a fresh start helps. Alex -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Alex I have no ~/.gnomerc-errors I tried to delete all the .gnome related stuff, and even things that were'nt related. Same error. Then I created a brand new 'testgnome' account that had nothing in /home/testgnome. Same error. *sigh* This is a longshot, but maybe I should just emerge --unmerge all of gnome and related? (how do I do that, including any /etc files and stuff -- like it never happened). Then I can re-emerge it all? I dunno. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

I've still got no gnome working and no idea how to fix this. I joined the gnome list, but it's useless. I've posted several times, and nothing gets through to it! I use DynDNS so it should work fine. The Exim list (which blocks too) works. In any event, it's so low volume (shocking considering how huge gnome is), I wonder if there is more than a handful of people on it to begin with. But I digress... This weekend, I did an emerge -au world and after two days, and like 160 packages, and all the 'etc-update' and stuff, still no gnome love. rev-dep rebuild. Not even a some lube. Then I did an emerge -aDu gnome and it compiled like 59 more packages. Guess what... Yep. Gnome still hates me and is putting it right in my pooper. Dry. So now I'm out of ideas. Is there a 'debug' mode or something I can see what or why whatever is crashing? How can I be the *only* one having this issue?! -Original Message- From: Daevid Vincent [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 21, 2007 10:32 PM To: gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org Subject: [gentoo-user] Gnome / problem registering the panel with bonobo-activation-server / error code 3 Okay.

[gentoo-user] Gnome problem
Hi, My computer was accidently shut down uncleanly while running Gnome. When it was restarted, the icons on the desktop won't show, when you right click on the desktop no options are presented, and the background image doesn't show. Any ideas as to why?
