System Configuration won't always start?
I installed Mandrake 10.0 Official the other day, and it's working great except for at least one thing I've found so far:
After being logged in for a while, doing various things like browsing the web and playing a game, I do this: "Start Menu" -> System -> Configuration -> Configure Your Computer The taskbar shows that it's loading... but nothing ever happens - no window comes up. After a while it's removed from the taskbar. This keeps happening. When I log out and log in again, it works fine again. Any thoughts? Thanks, Jakob. |
had that exact same problem. stop your firewall and see if it still happens.
if it doesnt: add this line to your iptables rules iptables -I INPUT 1 -i lo -j ACCEPT i saved the rules and since then kde and gnome are loading much faster and dont have that mandrake control center error anymore (had it too in Konqueror when i wanteed to browse my folders) |
Thanks, I'll give it a try when I get home tonight.

> add this line to your iptables rules
> iptables -I INPUT 1 -i lo -j ACCEPT Hmmm... the /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables reads a file called /etc/sysconfig/iptables which is not there. I generated it with ./iptables save, but that doesn't help much. Where exactly would you add this line? Thanks, Jakob |
Running the line manually _does_ seem to help by the way! The machine in on all the time, so I'll just keep it like this to see if the problem resurfaces.
