hi :-) i installed bundle-gnome via apt-get, added it in the .xinitrc-file...
when i startx, gnome seems to hang at a certain point... the mac os terminal prints this msg (also, when i start x11 from the apps folder, and type 'gnome-session' in the terminal there, exactly the same thing happens): ----------------------------- [fluxXo:~] bruun% startx XFree86 Version 4.3.0 / X Window System (protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6600) _XSERVTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.X11-unix should be set to root [DRI] screen 0 installation complete Screen 0 added: 1024x768 @ (0,0) _IceTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.ICE-unix should be set to root SESSION_MANAGER=local/fluxXo.local:/tmp/.ICE-unix/5446 gdk_imlib ERROR: Cannot load image: /sw/share/pixmaps/gnome-audio2.png All fallbacks failed. esd: Esound sound daemon already running or stale UNIX socket /tmp/.esd/socket This socket already exists indicating esd is already running. Exiting... error--> (error "No such structure" rep.data.tables) Gnome-Message: gnome_execute_async_with_env_fds: returning -1 --------------------------------------------- does anyone know how i can fix this problem (and what the message means exactly:-)?) btw, where it says 'should be set to root', is that part of my problem? thanks, /bruno --- Martin Costabel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > bruno wrote: > [] > > [fluxXo:~] bruun% startx > > tcsh: userclientrc=/Users/bruun/.xinitrc: Command > not > > found. > > This is a well-known bug in Apple's X11.
