OK, a while back I installed a few apps from add on things in YAST2 and when I
tried to load Gnome, all I saw was a LITTLE tiny panel at the top, with just
the basic Gnome drop down menu. My wall paper was gone, no icons, no bar at
the bottom, just a top panel with the regular Gnome drop down, and I can NOT
for the life of me figure out what happened or how to fix it so it looks
normal again.
I'm to the point I was ready to completely delete Gnome and reinstall it but
then it seems to be that if I do the system could break with all my other
apps that need something from Gnome.
Why would you delete and reinstall software over an issue of
data loss/corruption? Reinstalling the software won't fix
bring back a corrupted/lost .gnome directory.
You owe the oracle 100 repititions of "Linux is not Windows"
So does anyone have any idea what happened? Is my system now doomed to having
to just deal with this? WindowMaker and KDE and everything else work just
fine but if I want to use Gnome I can't really, it's like everything is gone
that I did with it.
YOUR directory where gnome keeps the startup/config data
(/home/YourLoginNameHere/.gnome or something like that)
got hosed.
I've had a similar thing happen with my .kde directory.
Has anyone ever seen this before? I'd really like to fix it back to the way it
was before or even the default SUSE look where I at least have task bars and
icons.
Thanks all,
