Jul 1 04:00:23 myhost kernel: pid 1551 (polkit-gnome-authen), uid 92: exited on signal 4 (core dumped) Gnome appears to start, but things do not work properly. For example, the number of "workspaces" is fixed at 1 and cannot be changed, I believe because the components cannot communicate with gnome-session. >How-To-Repeat: 1. Buy a HP Z800 computer 2. Boot to FreeBSD 8.1-RC1 DVD 3. Install FreeBSD 4. portsnap fetch extract 5. pkg_add -r xorg 6. pkg_add -r gnome2 7. add gnome_enable="YES" to rc.conf 8. add /proc to /etc/fstab 9. Fix my.domain references in /etc/hosts 10. Reboot and login >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
