Just installed RH7 and logged in as root. Gnome tries to start the panel at the bottem but panel flashes quickly and disappears. When I issue "panel &" from a typescript it appears and disappears continously. Looking at ps aux it seems to be looping starting and ending with new PIDs. When I look in the /var/messages log it shows the following: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual addr. 00005e98 . (Other messages which seem unrelated) Process Panel Call Trace: Bad EIP value Code: <1> Unable to handle kernel paging request My hardware is as follows: CTX Notebook 800 series 300 MHz 64 RAM 4G Hard Drive NeoMagic Video Card (Seems to be configured correctly) Hard Drive partitioned as follows (I let installer choose): /root 19M /SWAP 66M / 3016M
I see the same problem, same machine.
This is probably the APM problem. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 16891 ***
