From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021218 Description of problem: Gnome works and I can start a number of things under gnome, but I cannot log out or start any item from openoffice. When I try starting or opening these things then it just comes back with what looks like it didn't start anything. However if I look do a 'ps axf' then I see that it did start, but is wait there for what looks like forever. Now if I kill nautilus then I can logout or run openoffice apps without a problem. By the way when I kill nautilus process, it look like this: nautilus --no-default-window --sm-client-id default3 After nautilus is killed then it starts up again automatically an runs it again, only it looks like this: nautilus --sm-client-id 1117f000001000104281477400000015160002 --screen 0 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.I install a base rh 8.0 2.Then I upgrade to 8.0.92 (8.1 beta) 3.Then sign on to the gnome desktop Additional info:
Do you get any output in .xsession-errors?
The only error in .xsession-errors is about FAMError. It seems like everone else has this same problem. However no one has associated it with nautilus which is called by (libgnome, libgnomeui). So somewhere in nautilus or the libgnome is lays the problem. I personally think it is in libgnome somewhere. Because when I kill nautilus it starts again in a different manner, which works everytime.
Do you still see this in FC3test3?
