Package: gnome-session Version: 2.22.3-2 Followup-For: Bug #518069 Hello,
I am trying to launch two gnome-session's: one from GDM (no problem) and another one with xinit. The second one fails, as described in the bug report. But I was able to go a little further by modifying my .xinitrc (or running this as xinit's client parameter): exec dbus-launch gnome-session Launched through dbus-launch, gnome-session is able to set the mouse cursor (instead of the X one) and to display a gnome-panel. But this gnome-panel contains almost nothing (no visible menu…), and there is no nautilus desktop. So, it is still an unusable gnome-session, but there is a little progress. :-) Hope this may help, -- Tanguy Ortolo -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-vserver-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnome-session depends on: ii gconf2 2.24.0-7 GNOME configuration database syste ii gnome-control-center 1:2.22.2.1-2 utilities to configure the GNOME d ii gnome-settings-daemon 2.22.2.1-2 GNOME settings daemon ii libatk1.0-0 1.22.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libbonobo2-0 2.24.1-1 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.1-5 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.80-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgconf2-4 2.24.0-7 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglib2.0-0 2.20.0-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-keyring0 2.22.3-2 GNOME keyring services library ii libgnome2-0 2.20.1.1-1 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomeui-0 2.20.1.1-2 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgtk2.0-0 2.14.7-4+b1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii liborbit2 1:2.14.13-0.1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-0 1.22.4-2 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libsm6 2:1.0.3-2 X11 Session Management library ii libwrap0 7.6.q-16 Wietse Venema's TCP wrappers libra ii libx11-6 2:1.2-1 X11 client-side library ii libxau6 1:1.0.3-3 X11 authorisation library Versions of packages gnome-session recommends: ii dbus-x11 1.2.1-5 simple interprocess messaging syst ii gnome-panel 2.20.3-5 launcher and docking facility for ii metacity 1:2.22.0-2 A lightweight GTK2 based Window Ma ii nautilus 2.20.0-7 file manager and graphical shell f Versions of packages gnome-session suggests: ii desktop-base 5.0.3 common files for the Debian Deskto ii gnome-user-guide [gnome2-user 2.22.1-1 GNOME user's guide -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
