This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
Description of problem: rhythmbox works fine when running in the gnome desktop at runlevel 5. It fails when running under a runlevel 3 fvwm environment. From google searching it appears that some people are able to run rhythmbox in connection with fvwm. It would be desirable to have all or most gnome apps readily operate outside of gnome desktop environment. Perhaps there is documentation explaining how to run gnome apps such as rhythmbox outside of the gnome desktop. If so, perhaps it could be made easier to find. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libgnome 2.32.0-1.fc14 How reproducible: run rhythmbox within an fvwm runlevel 3 environment. Steps to Reproduce: 1. login to a runlevel 3 environment 2. telinit 5 3. verify rhythmbox works in a gnome desktop environment 4. telinit 3 5. bring up fvwm environment 6. run rhythmbox using same selection from play list Actual results: selection will not play. Expected results: selection to play. Additional info: Ran the following: g (gnome) strace -f rhythmbox > ~/rhythmbox-strace-gnome 2>&1 f (fvwm) strace -f rhythmbox > ~/rhythmbox-strace 2>&1 First succeeds (gnome), second fails (fvwm). common [pid 2794] mkdir("/tmp/orbit-blackburn", 0700) = -1 EEXIST (File exists) [pid 2794] stat64("/tmp/orbit-blackburn", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 [pid 2794] utime("/tmp/orbit-blackburn", [0, 0]) = 0 g (gnome) [pid 2794] connect(14, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/tmp/orbit-blackburn/linc-91a-0-627bfc9a8f14c"}, 48) = 0 f (fvwm) [pid 3967] bind(11, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/tmp/orbit-blackburn/linc-f7f-0-33167a22ce79d"}, 48) = 0 [pid 3967] getsockname(11, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/tmp/orbit-blackburn/linc-f7f-0-33167a22ce79d"}, [48]) = 0 [pid 3967] connect(14, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/tmp/orbit-blackburn/linc-d55-0-54b5cef116b07"}, 48) = -1 ECONNREFUSED (Connection refused) [pid 3967] connect(17, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/tmp/orbit-blackburn/linc-d24-0-17d85b97d4ee"}, 47) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) Many ECONNREFUSED or ENOENT Never succeeds Running on 32bit single cpu laptop with: cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [I82801DBICH4 ]: ICH4 - Intel 82801DB-ICH4 Intel 82801DB-ICH4 with VIA1612A at irq 17 1 [Modem ]: ICH-MODEM - Intel 82801DB-ICH4 Modem Perhaps there is a dependency on something in the gnome environment that can be set up for an fvwm (or other non-gnome) environment. Maybe a specific document could be developed.
