Fail to start Gnome
Hi all folks,
Fedora Core 2 (upgrade from RH8.0) After upgrade I could not start Gnome, having played around with following steps without a solution. On GUI login as USER to start Gnome, it appeared as KDE theme, all gnome packages not found. Renamed all following files ~/ .gnome .gnome2 .gnome_private .gnome2_private .gnome-desktop as .old and rebooted PC. Still could not start Gnome. A new set of files generated except ~/gnome-desktop which could not be found after reboot and login Started init 3 $ startx Started KDE desktop $ xterm xterm Xt error Can't open display $ gnome-session Gtk-warning ** cannot open displays: (gnome-session:6694) $ startx gnome-session ...... wating for X server to shut down Gnome could not start Google search could not brought a right solution. Kindly advise. TIA B.R satimis |
It happened to me once.
I had upgraded red hat, but had also created again the same users during the install process. The result is that all all access rights for the users directory had been mixed up. And the other result is that i could'nt load any desktop environment ! Perhaps is it the same for you...? |
