Fedora 18, I can't start gnome 3.6.x after kernel update 3.8.1.xxx, Cinnamon works, KDE works, but my favorite WM - don't. backtrace_rating: 3 Package: gnome-shell-3.6.3.1-1.fc18 OS Release: Fedora release 18 (Spherical Cow)
Hi, I'm trying to install Fedora 18 using the 32bit Live CD on a virtual machine in virtualbox. The installer crashes immediately with "oh no something has gone wrong". When I logged on to one of the virtual terminals I found messages in /var/log/messages indicating that gnome-shell crashed (core dump). The abrt reason is the one mentioned in this bug report. I've tried starting with xdriver=vesa and via Troubleshooting > start with basic video driver. I've ran the media check and it completed 100% and started the installation so I believe the media (ISO image) is fine. All I get is the Fedora 18 progress bar, then a black screen and for a short moment a blue background, then it crashes before the very first dialog. Regards Bram Mertens
This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '18'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 18 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2014-01-14. Fedora 18 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
