Public bug reported:
I have finally got crossfire working; two Radeon 4850. But now gnome-
shell refuses to work with it set up. I can move the mouse on both
monitors, but gnome-shell isn't running. If I try to run it from command
line I get:
$ gnome-shell --replace --sync
Window manager warning: Log level 16: Unable to register authentication agent:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed: An authentication agent
already exists for the given subject
Window manager warning: Log level 16: Error registering polkit authentication
agent: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed: An authentication
agent already exists for the given subject (polkit-error-quark 0)
JS LOG: GNOME Shell started at Fri Dec 30 2011 21:05:53 GMT-0700 (MST)
Window manager warning: Log level 16: The program 'gnome-shell' received an X
Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
(Details: serial 1247 error_code 8 request_code 7 minor_code 0)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
I'm not sure what other information I can provide.
