Contrary to the subject line this bug kills all windows managers and not only compiz. gnome-session simply does not start (or is terminally confused). Adding a missing line, like in the report, restores sanity. Thanks guys, sorry for the breakage. The fix should hopefully make tonight's compose and be in tomorrow's rawhide. |
Description of problem: For the last couple of releases, if compiz is set under the gconf key /apps/gnome-session/rh/window_manager A blank screen comes up after login to gnome. When the key is reset to metacity, there are no problems. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-session-2.15.90-3.fc6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable compiz as wm through system>preferences>more preferences>desktop effects. 2.Reboot and log into gnome Additional info: There is a bug in the gnome-wm script: the compiz) clause is not terminated. The fix is trivial. --- /home/vismor/gnome-wm 2006-08-12 12:52:41.000000000 -0400 +++ /usr/bin/gnome-wm 2006-08-12 12:29:13.000000000 -0400 @@ -84,6 +84,7 @@ OPT1=--sm-client-id OPT2=$SMID OPT3=gconf + ;; openbox) OPT1=--sm-client-id OPT2=$SMID
