gnome3

Postby nadir » Fri May 03, 2013 7:56 am

I logged in X as root, as i only wanted to run unetbootin quickly (and tried to avoid typing all my sshfs passwords).
Ups: gnome still installed?
The short story is: liked what i saw.

After reboot i figured out there is a nother user on that box. I edited his .xinitrc and made him startx into gnome3.
Umpf:
I added a traditional menu to his panel, and couldn't make it go away?
(right click, then remove, would be convenient, no? I think that once was done in environments, and i liked it).
K, i deleted the user, i deleted his home, i added the user again, i logged in: traditional menu still there (wtf is faq?).

Ok, that's it for me and gnome again
(i really like it, and if i had more time i would get my head into it. I ain't got that time).

What i wanted to say is not: "gnome is crap". I wanted to say that in my humble eyes it looks like it is getting better and better.
So i herd u liek mudkip?

Ah. Thanks.

I later figured that it might also be the fallback mode.
I opened the thing which is supposed to do configuration, and no extra modules were loaded.
After creating three users, all unable to log in a normal gnome session, but with said menu in the panel, root still being able to login to normal gnome, i thought it might be the fallback mode.
Now why root can and others can't is beyond me.

I decided that if i want to look at gnome i will do it from a liveCD (and fedora sounds good for such).
Oh, well: or i just use it as root.
