Did you try the i386 version to see if you have similar problem? FWIW, it works for me on a pretty Vanilla FC4 x86_64 system... Seeing you have firefox 1.5 while plain FC4 has 1.0.7, maybe you have done some incompatible change on your system ? (In reply to comment #0) I noticed you installed rawhide version of Firefox > User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64); de-DE; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051202 Fedora/1.5-1 Firefox/1.5 That might probably explain why gdeskets didn't start due to the conflict with the browser. Could you provide more details about your system? Like comment #2 pointed out, the problem is mostly related to your system. my system isn't that modifized.. I just recompiled firefox from rawhide without pango and cairo. all other fedora packages are unmodifized. why should gdesklets fail to start because of the browser? it do not even require firefox and the strace shows nothing about it. What if you restart some daemons? I consulter other x86_64 users who reported no issue. I tryed to run it as a different user... same issue. what kind of daemons should I restart? which daemons does it use? Created attachment 122554 [details]
log file
here is the log file .. maybe you can find out the problem here
Looked at the attachment, it appears you have previously installed tarball version of gdesklets. I strongly suspect that you probably have forgotten to remove it hence the daemon failed to start. Taka a look at this line: in /usr/local/lib/gdesklets/gdesklets-daemon: line 114 ? in /usr/local/lib/gdesklets/gdesklets-daemon: line 101 _gdesklets_main in /usr/local/lib/gdesklets/utils/ErrorFormatter.py: line 119 _new_imp in /usr/local/lib/gdesklets/main/Starter.py: line 1 ? in /usr/local/lib/gdesklets/utils/ErrorFormatter.py: line 119 _new_imp The normal path is /usr/lib/gdesklets/ Use that command find /usr -name gdesklets and post it here. ok thx this was it a old tarball install. (note /usr/lib/ while it should be /usr/lib64) removed it and now it works. |
