From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.2.1) Gecko/20010901 Description of problem: I'm having a strange problem with the gnomecc command. After I login the gnome conter center will not run unless I first execute one of the gnome capplet in the setting menu. It doesn't matter which one I run just as long one runs. For example, Programs/Setting/Desktop/Panel Thereafter I can run gnomecc without any problems until I logout and login again. Then I have to repeat the above. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. login using the graphically interface 2. type gnomecc in a terminal window and nothing happens 3. select Programs/Settings/Desktop/Panel from the main menu 4. exit the Panel popup that was displayed 5. type gnomecc in a terminal window and now the gnome control center comes up. Additional info:
I know I reproduced this at one point. Should fix for hampton
Flagged private beta team, for mention above of Hampton.
With latest versions I can't reproduce, after initial login to GNOME, after initial login to KDE, or on an empty "Xnest" - not sure what changed but it seems to be gone.
