It seems to have fixed itself. I booted into Win2k, played some games for a bit, then went back into FC2 and it is working fine. The only thing I can think of is that this was the first boot with the 2.6.6-1.435 instead of the 2.6.5-1.385 that came with FC2... More details: I don't think the kernel was at fault for this. For a while now I've had some sort of bug that keeps changing my hostname from localhost. Most recently it was x1-6-00-09-5b-05-35-68 and when I started up X it did the same errors. I went back and hostname localhost and everything works fine. It seems that I get these errors whenever my hostname is something OTHER than localhost.localdomain and I log in as non-root. Why is this? bonobo-activation-server used to hang around on logout and had problems with the hostname changing. Not sure what the status of the bug is, but I seem to recall that its since been fixed. I just experienced the same bug, after an update of bonobo. By doing hostname localhost things work again. How can I fix this permanently? My computer has its own hostname. And how can I get the redhat network alert icon back on the panel? Unfortunately I told gnome to delete the various applets, and now I can't get this one back. Now everything is miraculously working fine again. It seems that after updating bonobo, one should first log in to gnome as root, not as an ordinary user. Afterwards it is safe for ordinary users too... Fedora Core 2 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC3 updates or in the FC4 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Hi, This bug is being closed because it has been in the NEEDINFO state for a long time now. Feel free to reopen the bug report if the problem still happens for you and you can provide any information that was requested. |
