Ubuntu :: Failed To Load Session "gnome"
May 5, 2011
I recently upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04. I am able to log into and use LXDE desktop, but at the GUI login when I try to log into gnome-shell or Open Box, the log in fails. With Open Box I just get a black screen. When trying gnome, I get error "Failed to load session "gnome." When trying KDE Plasma I get music and then black screen on which I can control the mouse cursor.
Attached is my hardware info and xsession error file. I am using a Samsung SyncMaster 175v monitor. Version 10.10 worked well, with not issues, and was fully updated. I followed the upgrade directions, I believe.

I've just bought this laptop Asus G750JZ with Intel Haswell i72.4 GHz and Nividia GTX 880. I have this problem with Debian: after i install the OS it says that Gnome 3 could not be loaded. I guess it doesnt recognize my video cards(Intel HD 4600 and NVidia 880). How to make Debian running in optimal condition on my laptop.

As someone says,I install fedora 15 in VisualBox,and before installing I choose "Enable 3D acceleration",but when entering the desktop,I just see "Gnome 3 failed to load".Earlier of today,I try this in VMware Workstation,there is the same question. Why this happens?Is that means I will miss the Gnome 3 in VisualBox and VMware Workstation.....for God's seek...

I just installed opensuse 11.4 64 bit. Compiz and everything was working fine on my ati card (mobility 2600) with the default radeon drivers. I added the gnome 3 stable repo, updated fine. But when I rebooted I get booted into the fallback with no 3d effects and it says "gnome 3 failed to load" What gives? The drivers were working fine with full acceleration. I know gnome 3 works on this card, I tested it on the fedora live cd just fine.

When i logged into a gnome desktop i got this message: "The GNOME session manager was unable to read file:'/home/(desktop name)/ICEauthority'. If this file exists it must be readable by you for GNOME to work properly. try logging in with failsafe session and removing the file." What commands do i use for that? or do i need to do something else?

I'm currently building a ubuntu distro and would like to run a script on GNOME startup. I've read about doing it through the session manager but I have to do it through chroot so I'll need to set it up as a terminal command. Is there a way to add an item to the Session Manager from terminal or, even better, a directory where I can put the script so it will run on start?

I've put a script in the "startup application preference". He load fine when i close and open my session, but he didn't load if i reboot or wake up before opening my session.That's the command i've write in the "startup application preference" : sh /home/myname/intuos.sh(The only thing my script do for now are reversing the button on the mouse of my Intuos4)I don't think my script are badly write, since he work manually.

I have installed Ubuntu Netbook Remix 10.04 on my Sony Vaio netbook. I want to be able to log into a Gnome session as an alternative to UNR. The main reason for wanting to do this is to be able to add some applets to the panel which I use a lot. This is not possible in UNR, which is really irritating! However, I really like UNR otherwise, so don't want to just install standard version.
Synaptic shows that Gnome is not installed, but when I try to install it, I get this error message:
gnome: Depends: swfdec-mozilla but it is not going to be installed
I tried uninstalling Epiphany, which I sometime use instead of Firefox, but still got the error. I installed Ubuntu-Desktop, but when I select "Gnome" from the session menue at the bottom of the login page, it just logs into UNR session.
How do I install Gnome desktop so that I can log into a Gnome session?

I have a problem with vsftpd (latest version available, 2.1.0pre3) SSL. I've configured it to a nonstandard port, 65440, disabled connect_from_port_20 and run it as a normal user, from home directory. I can't use the SSL feature, every time I connect, it only reaches the login process. After logging in, I get the following error (when data transfer would start for LIST command):
522 SSL connection failed; session reuse required
My vsftpd.conf looks like this
Code:
local_enable=NO
write_enable=YES
secure_email_list_enable=YES
email_password_file=/home/stringz/vsftpd/logins
# local_umask=022
dirmessage_enable=NO
vsftpd_log_file=/dev/null
xferlog_file=/dev/null
xferlog_enable=NO

# chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd.chroot_list
ls_recurse_enable=NO

force_local_logins_ssl=YES
ssl_tlsv1=YES
ssl_sslv2=NO
ssl_sslv3=NO
rsa_cert_file=/home/stringz/vsftpd/vsftpd.pem
The client side is a Total Commander 7.02, there hasn't been any problem with its SSL yet and this only occurs when trying to connect to my vsftpd.

I'm having issues logging into my system... After authenticating via GDM, the screen goes black with only the mouse showing and remains this way indefinitely. At first the hard disk is active to a similar degree as it was when logins were successful, but then the system (apart from being able to move the mouse) is unresponsive.
If left for long enough so that the screen goes into power-saving mode, moving the mouse brings up the unlock dialogue that you normally get if you set your computer to lock itself after a period of idleness.
I suspect some sort of file corruption, as I have not changed any settings recently. I have forced checks on all of my disks in the hope it would solve this problem. I have also tested logging in on a freshly created user account I created which gives the same result. Also, starting an xterm session from GDM works fine.

I'am using gentoo linux. After some system's updates VirtualBox stoped loading any virtual machine with error:
Code: Failed to open a session for the virtual machine. Virtual machine has terminated unexpectedly during startup.
Details:
Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: Machine
Interface: IMachine {99404f50-dd10-40d3-889b-dd2f79f1e95e} Kernel log
Code:
So, i've rebuilded all VirtualBox dependencies with safe flags, then i've recompiled most of the sys-* packages also with safe flags. However VirtualBox still doesn't work.
UPD: virtualbox-bin-3.1.4
UPD2: 3.1.6 and ose-versions crashes with same errors

I've got two ubuntu machines and i want to connect via ssh into a existing gnome session. (or a new one if that is possible) VNC works fine(well slow and unresponsive) but when trying ssh i get problems. After som trial and error(some permissions on host, i did sudo startx and screwed up) i logged in and could start xterm. Anyway now i want to use gnome, so i wrote "gnome-session" - something i read would work but i got ALOT of errors.
Code:
gnome-session[6094]: WARNING: Unable to find provider 'nautilus' of required component 'filemanager'
** (gnome-settings-daemon:6104): WARNING **: You can only run one xsettings manager at a time; exiting
** (gnome-settings-daemon:6104): WARNING **: Unable to start xsettings manager: Could not initialize xsettings manager.

I have both a mac and ubuntu box sitting on my desk. I work on the mac and access the ubuntu box over ssh.Often I need the point-and-click interface of the ubuntu box, at which point I run gnome-session. The problem is that the top and bottom menu bars fill the full size available to them, which can cause me problems (I use two different-sized screens and the barsget hidden), and overall it looks very messy. I would therefore like to confine the gnome-session to a window, much like you get with vnc (or parallels if you're running a virtual ubuntu session).

I just installed 10.04.1 i386 into a friend's computer, but I can't properly log in! Every time I type the password into the login screen to start Gnome Session, it goes right back into the login screen! FAILSAFE Gnome and XTerm works, but the normal Gnome does not.

In my login screen settings, I accidentally swithed from GNOME to the recovery terminal. I can boot to x fine in recovery mode, but I can't change the screen settings from here.
How do I change it back to GNOME?
