Package: gnome-terminal Version: 2.26.2-1 Severity: important
Under Gnome, clicking on the "root terminal" menu item causes "Startinng Root Terminal" to appear for a while in the list of programs at the bottom of the screen, but no root terminal window appears, ad eventually the "Starting Root Terminal" disappears from the list. Normal terminal windows start just fine. If I do "gksu gnome-terminal" from a normal window I get these messages: rbtho...@greybox:~$ gksu gnome-terminal ** (gnome-terminal:6184): WARNING **: Failed to connect to the session manager: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported Failed to contact the GConf daemon; exiting. rbtho...@greybox:~$ -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Kernel: Linux 2.6.29-2-powerpc Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gnome-terminal depends on: ii gnome-terminal-data 2.26.2-1 Data files for the GNOME terminal ii libatk1.0-0 1.26.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.9-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.80-4 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgconf2-4 2.26.2-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglib2.0-0 2.20.3-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.16.2-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 2:1.0.5-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libpango1.0-0 1.24.2-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libsm6 2:1.1.0-2 X11 Session Management library ii libstartup-notification0 0.10-1 library for program launch feedbac ii libvte9 1:0.20.5-1 Terminal emulator widget for GTK+ ii libx11-6 2:1.2.1-1 X11 client-side library Versions of packages gnome-terminal recommends: ii gvfs 1.2.3-1 userspace virtual filesystem - ser ii yelp 2.26.0-1 Help browser for GNOME gnome-terminal suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
