Description Ed Friedman 2009-12-09 22:49:41 UTC
Description of problem:
After creating new users, the new users have no desktop icons, the right mouse button does nothing when clicked in the background, and they receive an error message that File Manager is not responding at logout

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
system-config-users-1.2.94-1.fc12.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Use system-config-users to add a new user.
2.Logout, then log in as that new user.
3.
  
Actual results:
No desktop icons appear, the right mouse button does nothing in the background, and at logout a warning message appears saying that the File Manager is not responding.

Expected results:
Desktop icons should be present, the right mouse button should open a menu when clicked in the background, and no error message should appear at logout

Additional info:
The original user created when doing the Fedora 12 clean install works properly.  Only subsequent users created with system-config-users have this problem.  Selinux is turned off and all of the latest updates have been applied.

There is nothing that system-config-users needs to do so that desktop work (they usually install the files they need on first use). Changing component to nautilus.

Ed, can you please check bug 540198 if the workaround posted there works for you?

Comment 3 Ed Friedman 2009-12-10 20:10:02 UTC
Yes, this is a duplicate of bug 540198.

yum remove gstreamer-plugins-bad

was all that was needed to fix this problem.
