Dan - It's not bling causing the problem. I've had the exact same problem before, and I've never used the bling module.
Some history here... When I first installed e17 on this machine, everything worked fine. Then I did an update, and got this problem where e17 won't load from Entrance. I just stopped using Entrance for some time, reinstalled it a few weeks later and it worked fine... but broke the next time I updated again. I just recently (last week) reinstalled Entrance again, and now it's working great. I've never been able to find out exactly what the cause is, though. - Mike Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman) wrote: > On Thu, 21 Jun 2007 13:08:09 -0600 "Dan Kronstal" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > babbled: > > entrance has nothing to do with bling. it's for e17. bling wont be touched, > looked at loaded or run until e17 starts. you have some other problem on your > hands. somethng much deeper - like some shared lib that e apps use (evas, > edje, > ecore, eet, or something) has been screwed maybe? > > >> Hello everyone. >> I have e17 installed from Debian packages onto an Etch netinst.
