Gnome 2.28 won't load first time

hi,
I'm experiencing a strange problem as I investigate trying to have a working Gnome on my Arch.
I boot in gdm through inittab, and when i login for first time, desktop seem to load but gnome-panel not, and top shows activity of dbus and gvfs (maybe looping as I reported in older posts).
Then I kill gnome-session, back to gdm, login again and voila, it works.
Any idea? I'm stuck on this since weeks...

Sorry, I got badly confused, I'm using Gnome 2.30 (with 2.28 I hadn't any problems). I just ran a "pacman -Syu", just in case.
$ cat /etc/inittab

It's getting even harder to log into Gnome, as system often freezes while in gdm login screen. I'd tend to exclude hw problems, livecds of other distros and memory tests did not report any problem.
MODs: title of topic can be updated to Gnome 2.30?

  • Flash file not loading first time but loads on refresh

    I have a problem where a flash program is not loading when
    the webpage is first visited, it will get stuck on the loading
    screen. Now for this file to finish loading, it needs to load in
    another file. Once that file is done loading then the program will
    continue. But like I said the first time the program gets stuck on
    the loading screen and never continues. If you hit refresh in the
    browser then the program will continue past the loading screen.
    I've checked the code and everything seems fine there. Could
    this be a security issue? The two files are on the same domain. Or
    if anyone has any insight into this problem, it would be

    That is almost always caused by a faulty preloader code. Post
    your preloader code or a link to the website so it can be checked.

    Hi guys, I have quite a serous problem here, I have a Adobe Edge Animation (done in CC) that fails to load the first time in Opera and Crome but does work in Firefox and Safari. It fail to load every time coming from another page.
    The problem persist both locally and online. It does work in preview every single time.
    I you can push me in the right direction, that would be great.
    Thanks!
    Here you can see the animation:

    It seems to because of a style insertion error in animate library/content

    Is there a way to set a hint for an <af:inputtext> ??
    just like there is in amx for web mobile? HINT TEXT ?
    THANKS!!!

    Sorry for the late response,
    Yes is inside the public_html, because I have my css and js inside a folder in the webcontent

  • Inputtext component refreshes and the entered data is vanishes only happen when page loads first time

    Hi,
    Am using 11.1.1.5 adf jdev.
    I got unique issue , i have couple of jsff seach pages . In jsff , i have user enterable inputtext box ,Issue is when user enters data for first time . the component refreshes and the entered data is vanishes .
    But it happen for the first time when page loads, There is no partial triggers on dat input text box.

    Hi John,
    My page is not a part of a task flow. The whole app is an Admin app comprising of multiple individual pages navigated using Menu.
    I have tried to run this page individually on my local machine as well as when deployed on the WLS server. The behavior is the same.
    Kindly advice,
    Thanks,

  • AppsLocalLogin.jsp slow to load first time

    When logging into EBS 11.5.10.2 for the first time (for any given user), the AppsLocalLogin.jsp page takes anywhere from 5 to 15 seconds to load. Subsequent logins are nearly instantaneous.
    This behavior leads me to think it's being cached somewhere, whether in the database or on the PC. Is there a way to pre-load it into the cache, to speed up that initial login? Or is there something else going on here that is causing the slow initial load?
    Thanks,
    Lori

    As part of the server startup, similar to Hussein mentioned, do a:
    wget http://<hostname>.<domainname>:<port>/OA_HTML/AppsLocalLogin.jsp?username=<username>
    or similar for your O/S.Thanks, I'm experimenting with this.
    Or go one step further and script the user/password form submit for a given user.Any tips on how to go about this?
    PS. I have to ask, how often are you restarting your instance? Since the issue is only the first time the first user logs on, I
    woudn't have thought it would be a problem? Or is there something we are missing.We bounce our forms tier nightly at 3 am, so it tends to be an issue for users first thing in the morning. The reason I'm investigating now, though, is because we will soon be deploying a DMZ tier for self service HR, and expect to have more users who don't log in frequently. It's more for "appearances" sake - i.e., we don't want users to log in once to view their paystub, and be frustrated because the one and only time they log in, it takes so long.

  • HTML view does not load first time?

    All,
    I have two HTML views on my Visual Composer model which both have 'Start' connectors going into them with the URL's defined (and correct), but when the page first loads the HTML views just show as gray boxes.
    To get the HTML views to display the user needs to refresh the page then they appear!?
    Has anyone also experienced this? If so how did you resolve this problem, because this is unacceptable to the user?
    Thanks
    Conrad

    Hi Antonio,
    thanks for your reply.
    The problem that we seem to be having now is that 90% of the time the html views load but some times they don't, they just remain as gray boxes.
    I tried the simple demo that you suggested and it worked for me also, but as i said the problem only sometimes occurs.
    It maybe as you said a problem because i have lots of epcm events flying about and JavaScripts.
    I will try and get a consistent failure, take it from there and keep you posted.
    Thanks
    Conrad

  • UI configuration not loaded first time when view is enhanced

    Hi,
    I did enhancement on the view BP_SALES/CorpAccountShippingEF  in component BP_SALES
    There are UI configuration to be loaded based on the condition (life cycle stage) and for which enhancement has been done in spot CRM_UIU_BP_ENHANCEMENT.
    All works fine untill I simply create a enhancement for the above mentioned view. Once I do the enhancement, without making any further changes, the UI config that should get loaded doesn't load and is loaded with the default one.
    However on pressing enter, the desired config get loaded and all the mandatory fields show up.
    If I delete the enhancement for this view, then it works fine.However I need to enhance the view to default some values.
    Does anyone know why this is happening?
    Many thanks in advance for your help.
    Cheers,
    Rakesh

    Hi,
    Probably,when you enhance,some particular field ,which decides the runtime configuration to be loaded,is not getting its proper value.
    You can test this by putting a brkpoint in the method DO_CONFIG_DETERMINATION of your class.
    Do this wihout the enhancement first.
    So when you test,you would be able to see which configuration is loading for the 1st time,and also why.
    After this test it with the enhancement.This will help you to differentiate between the 2 scenarios,and probably also help you to identify the issue.

  • IchaT won't connect--first time user!!!

    I am trying desperatetly to talk to my 3 yr. old daughter on ichat.
    She and her mom have an apple id with ichat and i have an aol chat name with ichat.
    I read other posts and changed the network setting 443, so did she.
    it won't connect and we get connection errors. no success yet. once, we both came up then froze.
    that's it.
    any ideas?

    I'm asuming you mean video chat. Check both of your iChat Preferences Video Bandwidth Limit and make sure it is "none." With no other internet-savvy apps other than Safari running, each of you go to http://speedtest.net and do a speed test. Remember the smaller of kilobits-per-second upload and download numbers. Go into  System Preferences > Quicktime and select Streaming Speed to be the value closest to what you get from speedtest. Some people just say select 1/.5MBPS and all works well -- I have had a different experience than that so I recommend that you use the smallest of the speedtest numbers. Presumably, AIM's "wait awhile before trying to login again" penalty timer will have expired by the time you get this other stuff taken care of.
    Let us know how this works out for you.
    PS - are you, like, on business travel and in a hotel? You may have hotel firewall issues. Marriott chain hotels let you request a public IP address on their service signup page to bypass their restrictive port blocks, others you need to call the hotel's ISP support line and have them put you on a public IP. I think it is T-Mobile broadband that handles Hilton chain. They can do it but if you get an inexperienced customer service rep, (s)he may say that (s)he can't do that, but they can coz' I've had 'em do it for me before. And don't forget to have all ports in your Mac's firewall closed on your laptop mac that you are using in the hotel with a public IP and the Mac's firewall turned on. Don't want any internet evildoers seeing an unlocked door. iChat will open locally on your computer what ports you need.

    What else is running on your computer?
    Do you have large folded structures that need to be computed at compile time?
    Is your VI set to seperate compiled code?
    Do most VIs (e.g. examples from the example finder) load much faster?
    If most of the questions don't apply and you think it should load much faster, please attach your VI.

  • First two images don't load first time podcast is loaded in Safari

    I created a podcast with GarageBand, and have 4 images in the podcast track. When I export to iWeb, I let the images be constrained to 300dpi by the app. After uploading, when I first open the site in a freshly launched Safari, go to the episode, let the movie fully load, the click play, and the 1st two images don't appear. When I rewind and play, they then render. Doesn't happen in Camino. Any suggestions?
    Bob

    Try publishing your site to a folder on the desktop and double clicking the index.html file to see if the problem shows up. If it does, the problem is in iWeb.
    If it doesn't, then you should try a "Publish All", empty your browser cache and look again.
