Just cleaned up the .xsessionerror file, have not looked the content, pity! Did some experiment. I started the x-session under root (althought it is not good to do that) Found the .x-sessionerror show up again. The content is:
Xsession: X session started for root at Fri Jan 19 07:03:55 EST 2007 SESSION_MANAGER=local/p3.local.net:/tmp/.ICE-unix/3574 libhal.c 767 : org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceDoesNotExist raised "Service "org.freedesktop.Hal" does not exist" ** (gnome-volume-manager:3696): WARNING **: manager.c/1054: seems that HAL is not running (gnome-panel:3698): Gtk-WARNING **: Ignoring the separator setting /root/.gnome2/gedit-metadata.xml:1: parser error : Document is empty ^ /root/.gnome2/gedit-metadata.xml:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found ^ Thanks, On 1/19/07, jie gong <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
