[Bug 38845] Re: gnome confused when date not set correctly
I have loaded ubuntu fiesty on my mac ppc and every morning when i start the comp, the date gets reset to 1904/01/01 and nautilus crashes too asking if the applets are to be deleted. It doesn't work until I type in killall bonobo-activation server and restart nautilus using Alt-F2. Any solutions for this? are the two related? i can attach a screenshot of my desktop at startup incase any1's interested. -- gnome confused when date not set correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/38845 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I have a Wallstreet G3 Powerbook with a dead PRAM and my symptomps are the same as described in this bug. Could this not be fixed by setting some kind of date redefinition in the init file for GDM that runs at startup. Something like, if date 1970 then set date to something after 1970. Thereby us that have old laptops could still use them, without buying a new PRAM, that costs a bundle. -- gnome confused when date not set correctly https://launchpad.net/bugs/38845 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
