[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1694454] Re: Can't open gnome terminal

2018-04-01 Thread Plamen
Awesome observation Chris,
Now that you mention it, I also have other DE installed. But the issue appears 
without login into any of them beforehand. 


I've noticed that sometimes when I login into other DE -> logout -> and login 
again to gnome the apps works normally. Not sure which one I have a few.

2018-03-29 Thread Chris S.
dino99: I tried what I said, and GNOME apps launch when logging out
fully from each session. So the issue only occurs when two DEs have been
logged in (even if the XFCE session is logged out), I assume with the
same username. So perhaps GNOME apps think they're launching in XFCE,
but since XFCE is closed, they don't launch anywhere.

It would appear the workaround for me would be to remote login with a
different username.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1694454] Re: Can't open gnome terminal

2018-03-29 Thread Chris S.
dino99: I ran deborphan and bleachbit. Nothing major there.

The most recent change to this system was the setup of XFCE and XRDP for
remote login. If I restart the machine, I can launch the GNOME apps like
normal. To replicate the issue, I first have to remote login to XFCE (do
something, then log out). Then I physically go to the PC and try to use
a GNOME app in the GNOME DE. The XFCE and GNOME sessions use the same
username. So it appears the GNOME apps may be getting confused as to
which DE to use. But why just the GNOME apps and not everything else?

In order to set up the remote desktop, I modified the .xsession file to
be this:

#!/bin/bash
xfce4-session

This allows me to log in as the same user on the local and remote
sessions. Perhaps this is a bad practice, but it allows me to use my
tower PC (in the basement) on my laptop (upstairs). Perhaps this would
all work better if I set up a separate user (e.g., in the original
username group to access the same files) for remote access instead of
using the same username.

Still, I imagine if I log out of GNOME, log in remotely with XFCE, log
out of XFCE, then log in to GNOME, the issue may still persist. I will
try that now.

dino99:

- which DE is used ? GNOME

- is it a rolling installation ? Yes

- can you confirm that issue when loging an other user ? I had to make a
new user to test this. Yes, it does work on the other user...

- try cleaning the system via deborphan and bleachbit (as root, but
carefully select options). I've been meaning to do this. Will do.

- is journalctl show useful warnings/errors ? Here are some from GNOME

2018-03-28 Thread dino99
Users affected:

- which DE is used ?
- is it a rolling installation ?
- can you confirm that issue when loging an other user ?
- try cleaning the system via deborphan and bleachbit (as root, but carefully 
select options)
- is journalctl show useful warnings/errors ?

After doing the requesting steps, and still having the issue, then
report your own bug to send real apport details; that report is outdated
and cant help devs to fix the problem as it concern an other more recent
release and possibly different config. So that one is useless and so
closed.

I can confirm this with a few apps, including gnome-terminal, nautilus,
"book", "documents", "calendar", dconf Editor, "disks", "disk usage
analyzer", and "logs", all GNOME apps.

Oddly, certain apps are just fine, like Gedit, System Monitor, and the
help menu.

2018-03-28 Thread Chris S.
Running any of the above apps via command / command line with "dbus-
launch" in front works.

In my situation, the only thing that's different in my setup is the
addition of XRDP for remote desktop, which is set to log in to XFCE
instead of GNOME to allow the two sessions to continue side-by-side.
This was set in the ~/.xsession file. I changed the file back to GNOME
session to test this, but it didn't help.

Yes,
same goes for totem as well.

Double clicking on video/audio files shows totem loading for a few
seconds and closing without error.

When I open totem from MATE Terminal and simply drop the video in its

Additionally, I can only launch nautilus from the command line, and many
other GNOME apps, such as Photos, also do not open.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1694454] Re: Can't open gnome terminal

2017-08-09 Thread Chris
I'm also experiencing this issue. I first noticed it when attempting to
start gnome-terminal using i3. The keyboard shortcut failed to launch
the terminal. I've noticed the same behavior intermittently using Gnome
desktop as well.

Sometimes restarting resolves the issue. But after a couple restarts,
and uninstalling/re-installing, gnome-terminal still fails to launch (it
simply returns the dbus accessibility warning).

Fortunately I could use the impressive alacritty terminal in the
meantime.

Here's my system info:

➜  ~ lsb_release -rd
Description:Ubuntu Artful Aardvark (development branch)
Release:17.10
 
Just let me know if any additional information is needed.

And thanks to Plamen above for the workaround! Using "dbus-launch gnome-
terminal" launches gnome-terminal without issue.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1694454] Re: Can't open gnome terminal

2017-06-07 Thread Plamen
I managed to start the gnome-terminal via this command: "dbus-launch 
gnome-terminal"
It outputs this error tho: "WARNING **: Couldn't register with accessibility 
bus: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application 
did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the 
reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken."


I also managed to start it with: "sudo gnome-terminal" without any errors.

Before that I tried "locale-gen" and "sudo localectl set-locale
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"" as mentioned in similar forum posts but they don't
seem to help in this case.
