You're upgrading from something that's not an actual release where you've changed major system components. This isn't really supportable. Um, no. I upgraded XFree86 and gnome worked fine with it. The Fedora installation process clobbered it, even if not intentionally. This is a Fedora problem, not XFree86 or gnome. It's possible you saved the customizable /etc/xinitrc and related startup scripts andf failed to restore them because your XFree86 installation failed. Or it could be completely unrelated. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031030 Description of problem: I am not certain if anacondond did this or the failed/recovered XFree86 installation post-install problems did it. The gnome panel, desktop icons, and wallpaper are gone, all I get is a single xterm on a black background. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start with Redhat 7.3 2.It may or may not need X 4.4 or other installation aborting condition. I hope not as recovery can be a real pain. 3.Upgrade existing system to Fedora. Actual Results: gnome desktop is gone Expected Results: gnome panel, icons and wallpaper appear after 'startx' Additional info:
