[Bug 495361] Re: [Xubuntu] No window manager at startup
I am sorry, I am not at home at the moment so I can't report a new bug, however I did not install xfce or xubuntu-desktop, but Xubuntu OS from the start. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495361 Title: [Xubuntu] No window manager at startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/metacity/+bug/495361/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 495361] Re: [Xubuntu] No window manager at startup
Same thing happens to me as well. No WM, can't type into Alt+F2, but use synaptics instead. Don't know if this is relevant but t is started happening after I installed Sound Juicer through Ubuntu software center. And I agree, this is quite a problematic bug, should be high priority! ** Attachment added: ".xsession-errors" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfwm4/+bug/495361/+attachment/3001765/+files/.xsession-errors -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495361 Title: [Xubuntu] No window manager at startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/metacity/+bug/495361/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 101943] Re: braid and other screensavers lock up system when compiz activated [-intel, -nvidia]
Me again :) Guess what, just as I finished posting it happened again! While I was working, so I guess it's probably not a screensaver issue (at least not for me). But everything did lock up, now that I think about it I think it was downloading updates every time it happened, I'm not sure...hmm can anyone point me in the right direction??? -- braid and other screensavers lock up system when compiz activated [-intel, -nvidia] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/101943 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 101943] Re: braid and other screensavers lock up system when compiz activated [-intel, -nvidia]
Hi guys, I'm kinda new at this, so here it goes: I've just installed Ubuntu on my laptop: Acer aspire 3020 Sempron 3000 ATI X600 512MB RAM And I'm loving it, I'm hoping never to go back to XP or vista. Linux seem to save your nerves by at least 80%. But I'm having one problem. It seems to be the same as yours here, except it happens with any screensaver and on my ati card. It just locks up. I can move the mouse cusor but that's about it, I can't click on anything as nothing happens and after a while even the mouse locks up. I'll disabled the screensaver on System->Prefrences->Screensaver and I'll leave it over night to see will it happen now, and I'll repost. I did what Tormod Volden said and got: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc M24 1P [Radeon Mobility X600] [1002:3150] Section "Device" Identifier "Configured Video Device" Driver "fglrx" EndSection compiz 0.7.4 Linux 2.6.24-19-generic I don't know where to find Xorg.0.log Hope this helps, and I hope the Bug gets neutered...I mean fixed :) BTW Does anyone know where I can find anything about IR port setup, it doesn't seem to be working on my laptop... -- braid and other screensavers lock up system when compiz activated [-intel, -nvidia] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/101943 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
