Gnome Terminal Don't work

Hi..!
I'm new here  
Gnome terminal don't work .. but another terminal like ( lxterminal work 100% ) ..
when I run gnome terminal using lxterminal I get this :
[philip@ArchLinux ~]$ gnome-terminal
Error constructing proxy for org.gnome.Terminal:/org/gnome/Terminal/Factory0: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.gnome.Terminal: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.gnome.Terminal exited with status 8
[philip@ArchLinux ~]$
can anyany one help me

Hey, I've been bouncing this problem around a few days now and finally have it working.
The potentially relevant files edited and commands used were: (not necessarily in this order)
# # files
# /etc/locale.conf
# /etc/locale.gen
# # commands
# locale-gen
# localectl
# localectl set-locale LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
# locale
# locale -a
# reboot
Currently, gnome-terminal is working for me. My LANG variable is C. The whole time I thought gnome required the locale to be set to "en_US.UTF-8" to [support utf-8 / function properly]. Seems I was wrong.
In the hopes that it may be useful ( and because I'm still not sure what change was the fix ), here's some info from my system with gnome-terminal now working.

    Hi all:
    The problem was caused by the NVIDIA driver 173xx branch . I switched to version 304.60 and "systemctl suspend" works fine.
    Thanks!

  • ( SOLVED )gnome-terminal, su, sudo, gksu, gksudo does not work

    Hello,
    In my fresh installed gnome3 graphical environment, in gnome-terminal, I can not gain root access.
    I've tried diverse su commands.
    1. su command, ends with:
    su -
    Password:
    su: Authentication failure
    2. sudo command, ends with:
    sudo -l
    [sudo] password for root:
    Sorry, try again.
    [sudo] password for root:
    Sorry, try again.
    [sudo] password for root:
    sudo: 2 incorrect password attempts
    Of course - each time, I typed correct password.
    In my sudoers file, group wheel ( into which belongs user I logged in ) has permissions to execute any command.
    3. gksudo with debug:
    gksudo -ld gnome-terminal
    No ask_pass set, using default!
    xauth: /tmp/libgksu-stbGos/.Xauthority
    STARTUP_ID: gksudo/gnome-terminal/879-0-Bex_TIME0

    xauth_env: /var/run/gdm/auth-for-tangram-9JYTNt/database
    dir: /tmp/libgksu-stbGos
    I've been asked for my password, not root, after typing I get "incorrect password attempt", if I type root pwd I get the same.
    4. Same with this command:
    gksu -ld gnome-terminal
    No ask_pass set, using default!
    xauth: /tmp/libgksu-SBPcOB/.Xauthority
    STARTUP_ID: gksu/gnome-terminal/1028-0-Bex_TIME0

    Hurrican, ok, there is no need to install antother terminal, as I wrote it did not work also in xterm.
    Yesterday evening, tired and sad that gk(su|sudo) still does not work,
    as the "last chance idea", I logged in into multi-user mode ( init level 3 ) and changed root's password,
    then loged in into graphical mode ( init level 5 ), start gnome-terminal and suddenly ... command "su -" started to work.
    By the way, similar solution ( but with chroot ) has suggested Gulver in his post ( this thread, answer #2 ).
    The question is, why root's password, set during install, after finished installation is recognized in text mode, but not im graphical ?
    First root's password was really simple, like "dog4356", without any national chars.
    You're right. I don't even have xterm installed so I guess I just singled out gnome-terminal and forgot that xterm also wasn't working.
    Forgive me for my shaky advice. Like you I've been super busy, and sweating out a fever of 102 degrees (that's Fahrenheit no my
    blood wasn't boiling ). Anyways, glad you got it working. After reading over the whole thread and thinking about it for a little bit, I
    can't really make a good guess as to what was happening.
    I'm sure you probably had tried this, but you could have typed the password out in the command line so you could see it. If there was
    something wrong with it, it would have shown up there as well. If it was perfectly fine, then it would have been very, very weird.
    The important thing is you got it working.
    Merry Christmas.

  • [Solved] Gnome-Terminal Not Working

    I recently installed Arch Linux and got the Gnome Gui working but when I tried to open the default terminal it started to load then quickly ended I looked a "solution" which said to type gnome-terminal into xterm so I did and it came up with:
    (process:766): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library. Using the fall back 'C' Locale.
    Error constructing proxy for org.gnome.Terminal:/org/Terminal/Factory0:for calling StartServiceByName for org.gnome.terminal: GDbus.error:org.freedeop.Dbus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.gnome.Terminal exited with statu
    and with I typed locale -a I got this:
    Locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
    and it said the same thing for LC_MESSAGES and LC_COLLATE

  • I am running SSH in Terminal window and my function keys don't work.

    Hi all,
    The company I am working in is using mainly Windows and they are running a database on Putty.exe
    I managed to set up the SSH in Terminal on Mac OSX and I can see the database well and fine. Certain "commands" within the database are executed by numbers 1, 2, 3 etc while other "commands" are executed by function keys F1, F2 - F16 etc. However, when I press the F1 - F12 keys on my keyboard, they don't work as expected.
    If any one has any expert advice, I would greatly appreciate it, thanks!

    FInd out from your database administrator what terminal type the database application supports. Examples of terminal types are vt100 and ansi. Now go back to the Mac's Terminal Preferences and set the terminal to the matching type.

  • Volume keys don't work anymore after Gnome 2.26 upgrade

    I have two pc: a desktop and a laptop. The desktop doesn't have this problem. While on the laptop, a sony vaio fz21s, after the recent gnome 2.26 upgrade, the volume keys don't work. The osd appears on the screen but no change in volume is observed. Through the gnome-volume-applet i set "Principal" as main device. Controlling the volume with the gnome-volume-applet works.

  • No scrolling when viewing man pages with Gnome terminal?

    Hi all,
    I have just installed Oracle Solaris 11 on x86. For a long time I've used Solaris 9 on SPARC. I like the new OS, but I'm having a problem viewing man pages with Gnome terminal. When I view a long man page, e.g., "man newfs", I don't get a functional scroll bar on the right hand side of the window. And although the space bar works to advance the page, when I reach the end, it doesn't return to the command prompt. It just beeps, prints "END", and I can only exit by closing the window. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Suggestions would be much appreciated.
    Many thanks,
    Chris Tidy

    It does sound like you're using "less" instead of more. When you see the "(END)" prompt you can simply type "q" and it will exit back to the command line prompt making it unnecessary to close the window. See the "less" manual page for more detail on the less command. Under Solaris 9 the paging was done with the "more" command. If you set the PAGER environment variiable to "more" the man page will use more and revert to the behavior you'd be used to with Solaris 9. Less erases the text you've already read when you type that final "q" which is a behavior I don't like. I didn't bother to determine if there is a way to fix that with less, I just went back to more. The choice between "more" and "less" is a personal preference.

  • [SOLVED] Poweroff, suspend and hibernate don't work

    I installed Archlinux on my work desktop on Monday and can't get poweroff, suspend and hibernate to work. The command `systemctl poweroff` sort of works, except it doesn't actually turn off the computer. Suspend and hibernate don't work at all, the computer hangs on the terminal with a cursor on the top left corner of the screen. Here is the log from `journalctl`. There doesn't seem to be any error messages in it, as far as I can see.

    I have resolved this issue. The reason I guess is also "locale"
    "$localectl" output "System Locale: n/a" and I check the /etc/locale.conf I found this file is lost.
    So after I press below command and reboot the machine, gnome-terminal could be started.
    # localectl set-locale LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
    Thanks all!

    I notice this with xfce's terminal too, and I believe it has to do with the fact that the window size has to be an integer multiple of the size of a character ie. there needs to be a whole number of lines shown vertically (and characters horizontally). I'm not sure if there is a way of getting it to play nice with awesome (as I don't use it), maybe somebody else can help...

  • [solved]Mono font substitution problem in gnome terminal

    I have to edit mono font substitution in 65-nonlatin* in /etc/fonts/conf.d
    Still don't understand why font rendering in terminal is different from the rest of the system though...
    Don't know where else to post this, so it ends up here...
    I just upgraded fontconfig today and substituted the ubuntu packages (cairo, freetype2 and libxft) with the cleartype ones (as the later are up-to-date and turn out looking cool too).
    The only problem I have now is that mono font substitutiton got messed up in gnome-terminal.
    Both gedit and terminal use the system mono font (which is set to Monospace), with Liberation Mono as the preferred font. But somehow the terminal decides to use a different font (looki like my Chinese font: wenquanyi-zenhei).
    If I tell the terminal to use Liberation Mono, I get a serifed Chinese font, so this is not a solution for me.
    I've read somewhere that gnome-terminal does not follow the system fontconfig? It gave me a lot of trouble the last time I upgrade the relevant files. So unfortunate that it decides to be naughty again this time...

    http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Configuring_locales instructed me to 'export LANG=en_EN.utf8' to set the system language to english, yet that locale doesn't exist in locale.gen. Of course, I had neglected to look in locale.gen for such an entry to uncomment it, or I would have noticed the error sooner. All is working now.

  • Gnome-terminal ignoring ssh keyring when launched with --maximize flag

    So I noticed something weird when I tried launching gnome-terminal with the --maximize flag my keyring for my  ssh rsa key stopped working. It would ask for the password, and would still ask for it after I've entered it once. It works fine when I launch it without the option, but I don't see how the maximize flag could do this. Any ideas on why this is happening and how to fix it?

    @Cerales.
    Which of the two criteria do you not understand.
    @defears.
    Thanks for the advice. The thing is when I go
    exec ck-launch-session gnome-session
    the terminal briefly whines about not being able to open the display and logs me out. Even sudoing the same command doesn't change that.
    Furthermore
    ck-launch-session gnome-session
    nor
    gnome-session
    do the job.
    The funny thing is when I add to ~/.xinitrc the line you mentioned it launches. There's no annoying login terminal spouting error messages. Sadly they still exist in the output of tty1. Also some panel widgets like the network widget still aren't working but that I'll go about fixing separately.
    I'm just wondering what is wrong. Can someone please help.

  • [SOLVED] cannot run gnome-terminal or rxvt

    I am running Arch 64 with GNOME. Every time that I try to run gnome-terminal, it simply flashes for a split second and disappears. it does not seem that rxvt is even invoked when I click on it, and I am not sure how to proceed.
    Here is what I have done:
    1.The problem started when I got openbox under GNOME up and running. I thought that openbox did something odd, so I removed it. (I don't think a window manager would damage applications, but I'm kinda knew to swapping them around)
    2. I went ahead and got metacity running again.
    3. I reinstalled GNOME.
    4. I double checked previous forum posts, and I indeed have a default shell (now zsh, see below)
    5. I went ahead and installed zsh. It works just fine in tty, and 'echo #SHELL' properly returns '/bin/zsh'
    Ideas?

    The only problem is with terminals; all other applications in X work fine. I don't think it is a driver problem since the terminal only began to misbehave after I installed/uninstalled openbox. I am not sure where to look for error messages; is there some logfile I can check?
    I think kazuo is on to something.
    DISPLAY=:0 gnome-terminal
    has the output (in tty1)
    Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 keyFailed to parse arguments: Cannot open display:
    UPDATE : The install I had was pretty fresh anyway, so I just reformatted. Therefore, no more problem.

  • Su - in gnome-terminal

    When I exec
    su - in gnome-terminal
    the result  is garbled prompt. Before switch user command I have prompt:
    [berni@laptop ~]$
    and after su command I have prompt like this:
    Ü0;root§laptop:ßÄroot§laptop ßÜ#
    When I reset the terminal, the prompt is OK again and I have:
    [root@laptop ~]#
    In my .bashrc, as in root's .bashrc, I have
    PS1='[u@h W]$ '
    What could be the problem?
    As berni user I have:
    [berni@laptop ~]$ locale
    LANG=hr_HR
    LC_CTYPE="hr_HR"
    LC_NUMERIC="hr_HR"
    LC_TIME="hr_HR"
    LC_COLLATE=C

    LC_ADDRESS="hr_HR"
    LC_TELEPHONE="hr_HR"
    LC_MEASUREMENT="hr_HR"
    LC_IDENTIFICATION="hr_HR"
    LC_ALL=
    but as root I have locale:
    [root@laptop ~]# locale

    LC_TELEPHONE="en_US"
    LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US"
    LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US"
    LC_ALL=
    Could this be the problem? Same thing is at my laptop as at my home desktop PC.
    The problem happened before switch to the Xorg7 and I think it is much more related to the gnome upgrade.
    I have done pacman -Syu and I dont have [testing] in my repository list.
    Regards, Berni.

    OK, I didnt set LOCALE in rc.conf and that's why my locale differ from root's locale. I did set languge in gdm chooser.
    I have corrected this and now root's locale is the same as berni's.
    But that didn't make any difference. I still have to reset my gnome-terminal upon switch to root.
    In aterm everything works OK, the prompt is correct.
