thank you for your quick response. this is the solution to the problem: ctrl-alt-f1 [login as me] sudo date --set 01/08/2007 sudo killall gdm sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
the problem originated from a dead PRAM battery(i think), well anyway the os is up and running now. thanks again...oliver hyperair <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: The command: killall bonobo-activation-server To restart nautilus: killall nautilus nautilus & disown -- Bonobo-activation-server sometimes is not killed after session restart, leading to many unexpected problems https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/49594 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. -- Bonobo-activation-server sometimes is not killed after session restart, leading to many unexpected problems https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/49594 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
