F15: LXDE install, OpenBox not running

2011-06-05 Thread Niels Weber
I installed the LXDE spin of Fedora 15 via a live usb stick on my Acer Netbook.
The install went through without errors but when starting up LXDE, the
Openbox window manager isn't running.
Starting it by hand works though I'm not sure how to correctly set it
up that it starts up every time. Any hints?

Thanks,
   Niels

Thanks, deleting the ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE as recommended in the
Bugzilla entry did the trick.

Thanks, that even has the 1.0.0.18 version but only the steam package,
not the dependencies.

Does anyone know whether spots repo will come back up?

So, now that is gone as well. And steam tells me, my package is
outdated, I should get a newer one from where I got the older one.

Has anyone got a new location?

Sadly it doesn't seem to be updated with newer steam versions.
Does anyone know the status?

unlock screen?

2015-03-17 Thread Niels Weber
Hi,

I'm experimenting around with blueproximity (on F21). The default
commands it uses to lock and unlock the screen use the
gnome-screensaver-command tool, that doesn't exist any more. I already
found out that I can lock the screen by sending a dbus command:

dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.gnome.ScreenSaver
/org/gnome/ScreenSaver org.gnome.ScreenSaver.Lock

But there doesn't seem to be anything for unlocking the screen?
("gnome-screensaver-command -d")
Is there any way that I missed so far? Or is it simply not possible?

Thanks,
   Niels

Thanks. So yes it is still there (just not by default) and works. This
solves my immediate problem. :)
Anyway, I understand that it is deprecated and my go away or stop
working soon. It still being at 3.6 certainly also points in that
direction. Will there be a replacement? Or is it not going away soon
after all?

Thanks,
  Niels

the login screen didn't work, switching to runlevel 3 and startx worked though.
Setting selinux to permissive allowed the login screen to run.
Relabelling the file system didn't help at all.

There is nothing in the timeframe in the output.

Any ideas?

I did a
touch /.autorelabel
and rebooted.
I think it said something about rebuilding the targeted setup and it
took quite some time.

The only thing I see that happens at the right time is this entry in
/var/log/messages:

Nov 10 13:25:53 numenor kernel: [20888.947632] type=1400

scontext=system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023
tcontext=system_u:object_r:device_t:s0 tclass=chr_file


I remember that there was a similar problem with the last release.
What am I to do? Relabelling didn't help so far.
