[gentoo-user] Re: Welcome to gentoo-user@gentoo.org

2006-03-14 Thread dimOK Seletski
hi guys, i have never done any posts before, so i am really
unexperienced(a maillist virgin? ;) however, i have problem, more than
one, like rest of us...
But problem i would like you to help me with is somehow related to gentoo, and particulary to gnome.
I am not good at searching information, but i tryed my best to find anything related to my problem.
The problem is, i use gdm(yeah!!! usually i start it manually, i am too
lazy to add it into loading processes) and i try to load my
gnome(yeaaah!!), but i can't load it(booo), it simply hangs after i
see a window which shows progress of gnome being loading(none of icons
appear, boo!!!). Steps made: upgraded to current version(--sync is 2
days old), upraded to experemental version, upgraded X to current
version(2 days old). I have deleted Gnome configuration files from
users directory still does not load(boo), "custom choice" is
loading(it looks a lot like clean X enviroment to me), but thats it(it
did load before too). No mistakes in X output, so i am pretty confident
it`s  gnome, any ideas?
In advance thanks for any reply.
P.S. if it is of any help: clocks applet caused problems before major
problems started, not major problems, but who knows, may be it is
somehow related...


[gentoo-user] Gnome troubles, hangs on boot without much explanation, X shows no mistake.

least none to the list).>  But problem i would like you to help me with is somehow related to gentoo,> and particulary to gnome.>  I am not good at searching information, but i tryed my best to find

and chgrp to make your home folder completely YOURS.--Daniel da VeigaComputer Operator - RS - Brazil-BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK-Version: 3.1GCM/IT/P/O d-? s:- a? C++$ UBLA++ P+ L++ E--- W+++$ N o+ K- w O M- V-

problem is -  created new user to check if permissions are set
correctly, didnt help, i did delete old config files from home

some sort of default gnome session config file, which i need to delete
as well...

did have this sort of problems before too, gnome is a buggy thing IMHO,
solution You told me did work for me at that time too... i am sure, all
folders an files belong to my user.To make things sure i created
new user and run gdm with new user as well, same story as my current
user session, same story as root session.--Cheers,Ghaith--gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing listI
