Dear All, I now have b129 installed, essentially following instructions from other posts byt building a new boot environment and populating that and then booting that.
HOWEVER, when I now log in via xdmcp, I get a login box fine, log in fine, get a desktop with icons but I DO NOT get a menu bar and also if I try to run (say) "Desktop Appearance" off a right button on dekstop, I then get errors reporting... =============================================================== Unable to start the settings manager 'gnome-settings-daemon'. Without the GNOME settings manager running, some preferences may not take effect. This could indicate a problem with DBus, or a non-GNOME (e.g. KDE) settings manager may already be active and conflicting with the GNOME settings manager. =============================================================== If I run svcs -x, I then get output as in attached file which looks o.k. to me at quick glance at least. svcs -xv gives no output at all. Can anyone offer suggestion of 1/. why I don't get menu bar 2/. why things like desktop appearance don't work. Are these both symptoms of some single problem?
