[Bug 542343] Re: gnome-panel will not autostart on lucid

2010-11-07 Thread candtalan
I get loss of panels from a fully updated ubuntu 10.10 in an old machine with 
lots of RAM, also in fact in Ubuntu 10.04 also.
The comment above by Alvils Berzins is very interesting indeed because my 
problem machine is PIII 650MHz, right in his proposed trouble range.
The Ubuntuforums thread re ubuntu 10.10 which includes the post
http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10084974postcount=13
starts with an apparent X crash but then also reveals the same 'missing panels' 
situation which was seen in the same machine in ubuntu 10.04.

It is beginning to look as if I just cannot make use of Ubuntu for these
old machines...

[Bug 542343] Re: gnome-panel will not autostart on lucid

2010-07-28 Thread Alvils Berzins
Hmm, I must admit this seems like some kind of a race condition to me. As Lucid 
in general starts up processes in parallel, then in a case where the system 
performance is not adequate, things might go south.
To test this, I have assembled two machines of notably low performance.
The first one is running on a Celeron 667 (sic) MHz CPU. Initially I put 256 
megs of RAM into it. It has a 20 GiB hard drive. Swapping as hell, it worked, 
apart from the fact that its i740 video card didn't support resolutions higher 
than 800x600 and so I was forced to generate an xorg.conf file and use the vesa 
driver. But that's another issue. Adding an additional 256 MiB helped to remedy 
the swapping issue, and, although pretty slow, it still worked.
The second one is the precise Intel Desktop Board with the i815 chipset 
mentioned in post #38. It has a Celeron 600 MHz CPU and 384 MiB of RAM 
installed. It uses the embedded video. Oh my - the first logon works as it 
should, as perhaps the configuration files are generated/cached, but the second 
one has no panel. Actually the panel launches, and pressing Ctrl+Alt+T to open 
the terminal and issuing `sudo killall gnome-panel` brings it back up. I tried 
to edit the /usr/share/applications/gnome-panel.desktop file and uncomment the 
X-gnome-autostart-phase=Panel line. After doing that, deleting ~/.g* 
directories and rebooting the panel came up again. And so after several 
restarts. But then I realized another issue - Nautilus does things the same 
way, so, although the panel is up, the desktop icons ain't. :(
Needless to say that after installing the updates the .desktop files were 
changed back to original, so just editing them is not enough, as any updates 
could put things back to normal.
I suspect the problem is Celeron 600's performance. I have a Celeron 766 MHz 
somewhere at home, so if I find it, I'll try to install that CPU on the faulty 
PC and see whether startup works normally then. It could be that the critical 
line for using a Celeron CPU is somewhere between 600 and 667 MHz. At least in 
the configuration I used.
Anyway, regardless of whether my tests will be successful, the very main issue 
that creates such behaviour is the one Lucid developers are proud of - parallel 
starting of processes. While giving an advantage on modern multi-core CPUs, 
this may not work on slower machines. I would be very glad in this regard if 
there was an option available during the installation (and maybe also 
afterwards) that would allow me to choose whether I want to start processes in 
parallel or in a sequential manner, so owners of older and slower machines 
(anyway, Celeron 600 is still enough for my Grandma to read e-mails) could also 
run Lucid. At the very least, update manager should not try to be smarter than 
me and change the .desktop files back to original. If I have edited them, I 
think I know what I'm doing and WHY I am doing that... :(

So, the bottom line of this is: I strongly suspect that this bug is
created by the parallel starting of processes. If a machine, for
whatever reason, does not have enough horsepower, a race condition could
appear. The obvious solution would be to allow the user to choose a
compatibility mode where those Gnome things would be started up in a
sequential manner.

I will inform you later (after about 10 hours) whether upgrading the CPU
to 766 MHz has solved the issue.

2010-07-28 Thread Virgil Brummond
Alvils Berzins, perhaps try setting the swappiness parameter to
vm.swappiness=100 on machines with low ram. I find this makes things
much smoother.

To do so:

1. Open this text file as root: /etc/sysctl.conf
2. Append this to the end: vm.swappiness=100
3. Reboot.

Hi Virgil,

Thanks for the tip. :) Actually, this is a good idea.
Yet, this is not the case. As I wrote, a Celeron 667 with 256 MiB of RAM swaps, 
but works. A Celeron 600 with 384 MiB does not.

2010-05-25 Thread J Slater
I have a new install of 10.04 on a Intel board with 815E chipset and
Celeron processor.  The video is is the integrated version in the 815
chipset.  On this machine, Lucid launches with no gnome-panel, but
otherwise xwindows is working.

On first launch, before any updating, gnome-panel did appear.  And now
it re-appears very occasionally, maybe every 20th boot.

Any help would be appreciated.  I am aware that gnome-panel can be
launched by hand after the boot.

2010-05-07 Thread KeithG
Well, this is affecting me as well on released code?!? I killall gnome-
panel and it works fine, but from login I get no panels except for one
login (mine). The 2 other 'users' get no panels at all. I have set them
up with a launcher icon that kills the panels and resets teh panels and
all is fine.

I updated Lucid last night and spent a lot of time trying to diagnose
and got nowhere. Deleting the config files ~/.g*** and allowing them to
be rebuilt does not work. I did try to install that mac like launcher
which did not work so I uninstalled it. Also nanny would also not run so
I uninstalled that as well (I get no configuration panel though it shows
an icon in the panel when it launches). Something is amiss. Much
rebooting and logging in and out and no joy. Any help appreciated.

marked a dupe of this bug, I thought I'd summarize:

Beta 1 (32-bit) - Menu  system tools is empty and system  preferences
 main menu system tools is empty. The other 2 issues of nVidia
settings and Control Center not being present in the menus seems to have
been corrected by a recent update.

Because it's the same problem. The malformed desktop file triggered the
symptoms in Nautilus too

[Bug 542343] Re: gnome-panel will not autostart on lucid

2010-03-20 Thread Uncle Spellbinder
So how, exactly, do .desktop entries effect missing menu entries?? In
Karmic (and previous versions) as well as Lucid up through Alpha 3,
System Tools included the entries Configuration Editor, File
Browser, GDebi, Report A Problem and Root Terminal. All are now
not present. This was viewable in system  preferences  main menu
system tools. The menu editor had these entries up until Beta 1. I fail
to see how my original bug -
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/542300 - is a dupe of this bug.

Could someone please enlighten me?

I had checked the .desktop entries, and did not see the type of
corruption present in this bug.  In fact, some of them were dated to
March 8, predating these problems.

It seems that the latest langpack.mk is mangling all the desktop files,
and putting X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain above the [Desktop Entry]  header
in all the new builds

This can easily be fixed by editing the gnome-panel.desktop file

`sudo vim /usr/share/applications/gnome-panel.desktop`

Move the first line (X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=gnome-panel-2.0) that
appears before the group name '[Desktop Entry]' to some point after, for
example mine now looks something like this:

code
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Panel
Comment=Launch other applications and provide various utilities to manage 
windows, show the time, etc.
Icon=gnome-panel
Exec=gnome-panel

I am affected too. Nothing in gnome starts, even in failsafe mode.
To get a working desktop, I have to start an xterm session, then start 
gnome-panel first and then start gnome-session. Starting a gnome-session first 
from xterm does not work.

I got similar errors as mentioned in comment #4.

2010-03-19 Thread Collin Pruitt
A patch that should work for standard installations of gnome-panel is included. 
To patch, download to your home directory (~/), and execute, in a terminal:
sudo patch -i gnome-panel.desktop.patch 
/usr/share/applications/gnome-panel.desktop
This should work for users that have the problem as described by Nathan Rogers 
in a previous comment.

Exact commands used to create and test the patch (with gnome-panel.desktop 
being the broken version and gnome-panel.desktop1 being the fixed version):
diff -cr /usr/share/applications/gnome-panel.desktop 
/usr/share/applications/gnome-panel.desktop1  gnome-panel.desktop.patch
sudo patch -i gnome-panel.desktop.patch 
/usr/share/applications/gnome-panel.desktop
