Fedora :: F12 - X Starts But No Gnome Or Kde

Feb 6, 2010

I've installed F12, updated to today. I've set it to boot to runlevel 3. That works. If I run startx, X starts - I see the mouse cursor and the blue/green background. But no panels. No desktop icons.

I tried switchdesk kde, then startx. Same thing. Except kde is running because if I right-click on the desktop, I get a kde dialog that allows me to start an app.

Tried switchdesk gnome. Same thing. Rebooted, same thing.

Fedora :: How To Run A Script When Gnome Starts Up

Nov 22, 2009

Where can I put a script so that it'll be run whenever gnome starts but not kde? I tried creating a file called .gnomerc in my home directory but that didn't work. I'd prefer to be able to do it without the "Startup Application" interface.

Fedora :: F11 With Gnome - Volume Starts Off At Maximum Level

Sep 17, 2009

Whenever I play streaming videos, (mpg, wmv, etc), the volume will move from where it's set to maximum level. Then I have to adjust the sound. If I play another streaming video it will do it again. I'm using F11 with Gnome. How to stop it from happening? No matter how I adjust player's volume, it starts off at maximum level. This is my sound info I'm using:
Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP73 High Definition Audio (rev a1)

May 30, 2010

I'm running CentOS 5.4 on i386 machine with 2.6.18-194.3.1.el5Whenever I login into Gnome, a gnome-termial window comes up.

Fedora :: "Places" Menu (Gnome) Starts Rythmbox Instead Of Opening Respective Folder?

Mar 28, 2011

For about a week or two when I try to open a folder from the menu "Places" of Gnome 2.32.0 (with Fedora 14 OS) the program Rythmbox starts instead. This happens even when I try to access a connected harddrive which requires entry of a code. After entering the code again Rythmbox opens! This doesn't happen only with "Computer", "Network" and "Connect to Server" of "Places". I can't think of anything that I did (apart from using Rythmbox quite often recently) that could have caused this, so I assume that it is a bug of Gnome. Have other people encountered this problem? (I assume that it is not Fedora specific, but rather a general problem of Gnome) If so,

Ubuntu :: Gnome Desktop Starts After Everything Else?

May 26, 2010

I love Ubuntu but since upgrading to 10.04 have 2 probs. The first, which I have posted in another thread, is the splash screen. The second is this: with compiz, startup occurs in this order:

1. Gnome do dock and pointer appear on black background with no panels or desktop
2. Some hard drive activity
3. 10 secs no hard drive activity still no desktop
4. Gnome Desktop and panels finally appear with wireless already connected

It seems to me that the Gnome/compiz desktop is loaded only after everything else, including wireless and all services/processes. Compiz works fine, I am not short of ram or resources (2 Gb + Core 2 duo@2.7ghz). My question is then, is there a way to change the order of startup so that the desktop/compiz appears more quickly?

Ubuntu :: Kubuntu 10.04 Starts Up With GNOME?

Aug 7, 2010

I have just started up Kubuntu, and it shows the Ubuntu desktop instead of Plasma. Before this, the only change I did was remove my Broadcom WiFi card because Kubuntu sometimes couldn't boot because of some error mentioning the bcm driver and phy5.

I removed the card, and no errors on boot. Now, I can't get on the internet because Kubuntu can't connect to anything. I see all of the networks, but I guess GNOME is interfering with Network Manager...

OpenSUSE :: Gnome No Longer Starts After Update?

Jan 21, 2011

since the last SuSE online update (last Wednesday?) the X server no longer starts on our notebook (ATI HD 4200) so we only have the consoles available, which limits the WAF heavily . We were using SuSE 11.3 with the Gnome desktop for about one months and it worked smoothly, but since the update (which included a kernel update to 2.6.34.7-0.7) the X server tries to start 5 times and then gives up. All logfiles end with:

Code:
...
[ 13.899] Segmentation fault at address 0x3c
[ 13.899]
Fatal server error:

[Code]....

I used the ati driver ati-fglrxG02-kmp-desktop, version 8.762_k2.6.34.0_12-31.1 from the ATI Suse repository. To solve the problem I already switched to the Xorg driver which lead to a color distorted display but no segmentation fault. But I'd like to get the ati driver running again.

Ubuntu :: Run A Script After Gnome Desktop Starts?

Feb 8, 2010

How do I run a script after gnome desktop starts? I want to run asterisk -rx reload as a command or a script AFTER gnome desktop (gui) loads, not during the boot process.For some reason my trunks are not loading in asterisk. If I set asterisk -rx reload in a script and run update-rc.d I can see the script run as everything boots but my trunks don't load. If I run the command after the gui loads the trunks reload and go online.

Ubuntu :: GNOME Only Starts In Safe Mode?

Oct 14, 2010

I did a clean install of 10.10 on my Asus A6R laptop today. Previously i had 10.04 on it.

After installation and the first reboot my GNOME won't start in normal session. If I select Ubuntu Desktop Edition (safe mode) everything works fine, but on the normal Ubuntu Desktop Edition session, GNOME just won't start. I have a mouse cursor that i can move around and a normal background. Also i can hear the usual startup sound.

Fedora Hardware :: Ksoftirqd Starts Using 100% Cpu ?

Feb 10, 2011

I'm not even sure where to start trouble shooting this. All I can tell you is that ksoftirqd starts using 100% cpu. It either happens immediately after a resume (about a 50 % chance), or at some random interval (anywhere from 5 minutes to 3 hours after a fresh boot).

Fedora :: 14 Hangs Before Anaconda Starts?

Apr 1, 2011

Tried to install F14 x64 last night, and selected "install or upgrade" from the splash screen. It ran a bunch of text past me a lot faster than I could read it, and the last line (where it ceased all function) said

Code:[ 2.040098] Registered taskstats version 1. I happened to have a 32 bit dvd of the same o/s, and it provides the same error. Anyone know of any parameters that can be entered, perhaps to skip a certain type of test, or whatever it is doing here?

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Starts And Stops And Starts And Stops?

Feb 10, 2010

Sometime after I upgraded to ubuntu 9.10 I've been having trouble with my wireless network connection.It will usually log on to the network, then disconnect a shortly after. Then try to connect again, usually successfully, then it cuts off again. Then connects again, then disconnects. FWIW, ubuntu 9.10 works on a different machine pretty consistently, so I don't think its a problem with the router.

Fedora Networking :: No Network When Desktop Gui Starts.

Feb 2, 2010

Brand new clean install of F12. On boot the network starts and grabs an IP from my DHCP server and will return pings, however, as soon as the logon window starts "all" network activety is stopped.

I have tried deactivating the NIC, then enabling again, (doesn't get an ip at this point), turning off the firewall, managing the network with & without network manager enabled, selinux off...all makes no difference.

Fedora :: Firefox Starts In Off-line Mode ?

Jun 29, 2010

Finally solved a problem of wireless not working on my laptop. Now I have a problem where Firefox (3.6.4) starts up in off-line mode on each instance. I have to go to files menu and uncheck the work offline button before trying to go to any site. When I close firefox and later open it again, the work offline button is still checked.

Why is the unchecking of work offline saved between instances? Other settings and preferences are saved correctly. I don't have this problem in openSUSE 11.2 & 11.3 (same version of FF).

Fedora 13
kernel 2.6.33.5-124.fc13_x64
KDE 4.4.4
Firefox 3.6.4
Dell Studio 1745
Intel Mobile Series 4 wireless 5100bg

Fedora :: Knetworkmanager Starts With Wireless Disabled?

Jul 22, 2010

I have two laptops here, a Lenovo T510 and a Lenovo Ideapdad S12, both running Fedora 13 with KDE4. On the T510 wireless worked out of the box and is enabled when I boot it, on the S12 it's not. I have the wl driver installed but every time I boot the laptop wireless is disabled in knetworkmanager. I have to manually enabled it, then wait a few seconds until it establishes a connection to my already configured wireless networks.

Fedora :: System Starts In Grub Prompt?

Jun 20, 2011

I have Windows Vista in a primary partition & Fedora 14 in a logical partition.

Recently, I increased the size of the extended partition and created another logical partition inside it. I formatted the new logical partition from Vista.

After reboot, instead of the list of operating systems, I started getting "grub>"

I searched on the internet and modified entries in /boot/grub/grub.conf, from (hd0,4).. to (hd0,5)..

I still get the grub prompt, but if I enter " configfile (hd0,5)/boot/grub/menu.lst " it shows the os list & I can use Fedora.

How can I configure the system so that it shows the list of os instead of "grub>" ?

Fedora Installation :: Only 11 Starts When Dual-boot Vista

Jun 11, 2009

One of the screens in the installer( middle of screen) will show what systems are on the grub menu, and one will be marked the default.

If the vista is not there (usually indicated by other), then click the add and select the correct boot partition (sda for vista) and change it's label to Windows Vista.

If other is there, click the edit button and change other to Windows Vista.

Finally, click the check box for the one you want to be the default boot. (you can always change that in the grub.conf later.)

Fedora :: Conky Application Starts Then Disappears From View

Oct 4, 2009

The application is Conky running under Fedora 12 Alpha. This application is set to start upon logging in to the desktop and it does just that. It appears for a second or two and then disappears from view. Although I don't see it, top tells me it is in fact running. As a result of this unexpected behavior I kill the process and restart the application using the ALT/F2 run application tool. When I do this Conky appears on the desktop and stays in view.

Considering just going with DVD upgrade. I googled preupgrade no video and here as well, and several unrelated things seemed to come up.

Fedora Installation :: F12 64 Bit - Starts The Boot Process And Then It Hangs

Dec 28, 2009

I'm attempting to install F12 64 bit. I currently have F10 running on this system. I'd like to do a clean install. I'm using the DVD. I boot the computer with the DVD in. I choose the first option (Install or upgrade). It starts the boot process and then it hangs. [URL]

After asking at #Fedora I was given the advice to boot with `intel_iommu=off`. That gets me slightly further in the process. It gets to the point where anaconda is starting. Then all heck breaks loose. It appears the monitor loses the signal from the computer (power light turns red just like if the computer was off). The caps lock and the scroll lock lights on the keyboard blink about once a second. The DVD drive continues to spin for about a minute and then stops. Since I have no display, I have no idea what's going on.
