Description John Parker 2011-07-15 12:14:54 UTC
Description of problem: After you start Fedora 15 and log on as a user, gnome-shell opens displaying the menu bar and a working mouse pointer. At this stage, right- or left-clicking a menu bar item has no effect.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-shell-3.0.2-4.fc15 (i686)


How reproducible: 100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Fedora 15.
2. Log on as a user.
3. Using the mouse, attempt to select any item on the top menu bar.
  
Actual results: Nothing happens.


Expected results: A drop-down list or other control should appear.


Additional info: After gnome-shell starts, if you press CTRL+ALT+F1, a terminal opens. If you then press CTRL+ALT+F2, you return to a black screen with the white log-on progress bar at the bottom. gnome-shell does not start.

Linux kernel: 2.6.38.8-35.fc15.i686
Graphics driver: GeForce Go 7300/PCI/SSE2
nvidia driver version: 275.09.07
mutter-3.0.2.1-1.fc15 (i686)

Same is the case with mine too...

After i give the password and login the gnome shell doesn't show any thing except a blank screen with default wall paper on it it neither shows a application bar nor shows any crash report ........


i am using fedora 15 on Toshiba pro c650 and i don't have any graphic cards installed in my machine to have problem because of that i am having a lot of problem with this issue

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 17:48:08 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. 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Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained.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 '15' 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 15 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:
