Description Peter Chiu 2005-04-11 17:59:58 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; Hotbar 4.3.1.0; FunWebProducts; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)

Description of problem:
A user has reported that he cannot use 
gnome-session to start up a gnome session.
It used to work before until recently.

The system (glue.badc.rl.ac.uk) is configured
to have updates pushed from RHN, so suspect
something crept in and failed over.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-session-2.2.2-3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.enter the command "gnome-session"


Actual Results:  a number of errors are reported:

gnome-session:15256): Gdk-CRITICAL **: file gdkdraw.c:
line 644 (gdk_draw_drawable:) assetion` src != NULL' failed
(window manager warning: Failed to load theme "Bluecurve":
line 230 character 28: 
Couldn't recognise the image file format for file
'/usr/share/themes/Bluecurve/metacity-1/minimiz.png'

A session window starts up but the usual RedHat icons (start, web browser,etc)
at the bottom menu bar are not displayed.

  

Expected Results:  A normal gnome session window with a menu bar at the bottom
showing the Start, Webbrowser, etc icons.
