From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.4.1) Gecko/20020508 Netscape6/6.2.3 Description of problem: While loading the operating system on a Dit computer - Duron based, I have repeated received an error Gnome-Canvas-path-def.c Path = !null line 1142. If I carefully de-select Gnome based modules, I have loaded Linux and it operates. I still haven't gotten the sound card working. Suggestions on the fatal error? e Dear Sir, Sorry for the delay. Please post this concern as a bug report to our bugtracking system so that our developers could take a look at this problem: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/ We apologize for the inconvenience. Regards, Philip Morales Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try installing Gnome from stratch. 2. OR try installing Gnome or related modules after the KDE has already loaded. 3. Use a Duron processor in a computer from DIT. Actual Results: Error was generated as described in summary. Final statement says "re-boot" Expected Results: Linux should have loaded the programs and started up. Additional info:
The error: Gnome-Canvas-path-def.c Path = !null line 1142 is a warning generated by the graphical installation program and is normal. It is not causing any problems. It sounds like perhaps your install media may be bad and when you try to install GNOME the installer attempts to install packages which are corrupt. Have you run the mediacheck?
After trying to load twice, I checked the media. After trying to those giant files on the web so I could load from a hard drive (in case I had a CDrom failure), I checked the media again with the program I downloaded. Both say that the media is fine. I had a C++ programmer friend of mine suggest that it might be my video card which happens to be built into the motherboard on this cheap computer. I need a system that works so that I can work on getting this all ready for our server. I'll add the video card in a separate message.
Please let me know what you determine.
