Hi Ryan,
you are right! forgot the 3. I am using 3.2.5
I give a update here of what I have come up with so far.
1) Under SL and Leopard must not be set manually
Which means not even in .profile, .bashrc, xinitrc, or startup
scripts
2) Do not start X from the finder or dock
3) the Macports WIKI for gnome does not work
none of the suggestions
a) using the .xinitrc.d scripts
i) causes X to continually start and quit
this is because it does not find metacity or
gnome
ii) I can get X to come up by using full paths for
metacity & gnome
but according to system.log metacity.destop and
other things ARE NOT FOUND
iii) Setting variables in startup scripts are not
passed to a xterm
I can not understand this, though when they are
set in the terminal they are passed on.
b) starting gnome-session from the terminal exists with:
Failed to start message bus:
launch_msg("CheckIn") IPC failure: Operation not permitted
EOF in dbus-launch reading address from bus
daemon
There seem to be problems the with environment the .xinitrc.d scripts run in!
I tried echoing the the variables with echo XDG_DATA_DIRS > test.out
from within the startup script, but get a permissions denied message in
system.log.
Any idea how I can produce output from within a startup script? Either to a
file or system.log ?
I assume there must be some extra setup to be done elsewhere! I noticed on
other port on the list that
kile has some files on the system that have to be change in order for it to
work.
Could some here on the list please say whether they have gnome running and if
so what they have done to get it running.
regards
Keith.
