Hi, I'm trying to get gnome-terminal to work on a FAT32 thumb drive.
Following the instructions on http://cygwinports.org/, I installed Cygwin and gnome-terminal. However, it fails to bring up a gnome-terminal. Copying the entire cygwin directory to the C: drive and starting up gnome-terminal, works just fine. So I suspect that this has to do with file permissions. I set the variable G_DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1_KEYRING_DIR_IGNORE_PERMISSION as specified on http://library.gnome.org/devel//gio/2.26/ch03.html but that didn't work. I turned on debugging an saw the message: . . . GDBus-debug:Auth: CLIENT: Trying to choose mechanism GDBus-debug:Auth: CLIENT: Trying mechanism `DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1' GDBus-debug:Auth: CLIENT: writing `AUTH DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 30\r\n' GDBus-debug:Auth: CLIENT: WaitingForData GDBus-debug:Auth: CLIENT: WaitingForData, read=`REJECTED EXTERNAL DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 ANONYMOUS' GDBus-debug:Auth: CLIENT: Done, authenticated=0 How can I get gnome-terminal to work on a FAT32 thumb drive?
