[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

Not helpful. Provide some detail as to what you tried; don't be a help vampire...
I have /etc/locale.conf
# localectl set-locale LANG="en_US.UTF-8" that didn't work
(Try to regenerate locales first:
# locale-gen
And then:
# localectl set-locale LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
reboot) that didn't work
localectl set-locale didn't work
(quoting alphabeat) All you have to do is edit /etc/locale.gen(/quote) didn't work
Sorry if this is unhelpful

[SOLVED] gnome-mplayer not working

When I start gnome-mplayer with verbose debugging enabled, I get the following error:
ERROR: Unknown option on the command line: -ass
Once I encountered this error, I tried installing libass which did not work. I then disabled ASS from the subtitles menu. Once I did that, I then got the following error:
ERROR: Unknown option on the command line: -subfont-text-scale
I believe this error is also related to the subtitle tab (but there is nothing else that I can disable).
I am using the following versions of mplayer and gnomemplayer:
gnome-mplayer (out of community) version=0.9.3
mplayer (out of extra) version=dev-SVN-rUNKNOWN-4.3.2
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Gnome terminal not opening

Hi
I have a problem with the gnome terminal not opening at all on Solaris 8/07 (Sun Ultra 24). No error message is output, the terminal simply fails to open.

( 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!

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:

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 does not start (fresh install)

Whenever I install gnome-terminal, I have the following message displayed:
(gconftool-2:28984): GConf-WARNING **: Client failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon:/usr/bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally without any error message
Then whenever I launch gnome-terminal I have this message:
** (gnome-terminal:1102): CRITICAL **: atk_bridge_adaptor_cleanup: assertion `inited' failed
The problem seems to be related to dbus. I have even tried guake which complains explicitly about "No D-BUS daemon running".
Systemctl is telling me that d-bus is up and running.
Any help appreciated.

Any ideas how to make them work?
(In Gnome-Shell, they work out of the box.)
I put this in the Laptop subforum, because with my netbook, all this works. I know, the Desktop Environments Subforum would also been an option.

OK OK, of course pacman -R xfce4-volumed is not enough, a killall xfce4-volumed is also neccesarry! volumeicon works now, solved.

[NOT SOLVED] Gnome will not start

I'm editing this original message by way of summing up so that anyone coming here with a similar problem will know what to expect if they read further:
I believe the reason Gnome would not start on the machine in question was that it made too many demands on the available hardware (see desm0te's comments below).
For this reason I decided to switch to LXDE as Desktop Environment which works well on the restricted hardware. I did not investigate the Gnome related problem any further.
The original message follows:
After a successful installation of the basic command-line Arch according to the Beginner's Guide, I went on to install Gnome according to instructions in the Wiki.
I Did not want Gnome to start automatically but only when I type in the command startx.
This it does, but all I get is the nice blue "curtain" background - no black bar at top of screen with Actions, date , name etc...
and no cursor.
One funny thing was - this afternoon while I was concentrating on another machine - the black bar suddenly appeared (apparently for no reason) showing the date and my name but with the X cursor
from the X11 environment. However as soon as I moved this cursor to the bar and clicked, both dursor and bar disappeared never to return .
I decided to redirect the stderr of startx to a file in the hope that it would give a clue as to what was wrong.

desm0tes:
To take your points one by one:
1. I am now quite happy with LXDE too. The problems I mentioned last night seem to have gone (???!!!) and I can just start LXDE from my user account. Maybe later, I'll realize what I was doing wrong or rather what I did to make it work... . Now I just type:
startx
having put:
exec ck-launch-session startlxde
in .xinitrc.
2. Thanks for the tip about yaourt. I shall try that sooner or later.
3. Well as I said - I don't understand what I was doing wrong - which makes me feel a bit stupid and is rather annoying but looking on the bright side it's fine to be able to start-up, have a legible screen and logout successfully - which I couln't do before. I now have to figure out how to expand the contents of LXDE a bit but that's the fun of it!
LXDE starts up nicely with minimal possibilties but I can change look & feel and customize the panel settings.
"Menu" contains:
Accessories:
File Manager
Image Viewer
LXTerminal
Leafpad
Xarchiver
Internet:
Avahi SSH Server Browser
Avahi VNC Server Browser
Office:
ePDFViewer
System Tools:
Avahi Zerconf Browser
Task Manager
Preferences:
Customize Look and Feel
Monitor Settings
OPenbox Configuration Maanger
Preferred Applications
Run
Logout
All of these start up OK and work, on cursory examination, except the Avahi Browsers which I don't understand and which appear to do nothing as no window appears on screen.
4. I'm not quite sure I can yet see the use of a login manager such as SLiM, since I seem to get on quite nicely without it but since I've heard it mentioned a lot I'm sure I'm just missing the point.

Solved rEFInd does not work after update

Hello.
Today, I updated rEFInd with yaourt.
After the update, I copied the new files in /boot/efi.
I rebooted and now rEFInd does not work.
The only message I got is:
rEFInd - Initializing
After 2-3 minutes, the computer reboots and I got the same error message.
To boot, I had to use the UEFI shell.
First of all, is there a log file for rEFInd?
It is not easy at all to debug it when we don't have any error messages.
After that, I did the procedure to install rEFInd in /boot/efi twice without any success.
Do you know what to do to solve my problem?
Thanks for your help.

[SOLVED] luks-passphrase not working after update

SOLVED: Hard drive was damaged. new hard drive ''fixed'' issue
Hello,
i updated my arch on 2015-06-05. After restarting my cryptsetup does not accept my password anymore.
No key available with this passphrase.
Searching the forum i found a couple of simular topics, nevertheless none of them offered a solution to the problem:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=169408
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=175737
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=148562
So the solutions that did not work so far:
1. Downgrading cryptsetup package
2. Downgrading kbd package
3. Checked that my keyboard works just fine (both in grub and in live system)
4. Manualy loading the aes modules in live system to ensure correct decryption (found that issue somewhere...)
Unfortunatly i did not backup the luks header file.
So i don't know if there is some other way to check if the header is broken or how to find out why it will not decrypt my disk.
I am happy for any solutions or ideas

file -s -L /dev/mapper/foobar
hexdump -C /dev/mapper/foobar
Gives me the master key for the decrypted partition (denoted as forum_key_kex).
Do i need to convert this to binary or something to use it...?
Assume Filesystem/dev_sda2 is the partition to decrypt.
So to decrypt the partition directly with master key i have to do one of the following, wasn't sure which hash to take...:
echo "0 `blockdev --getsz Filesystem/dev_sda2` crypt aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 `echo SomeEncrypt | sha256sum | head -c 64` 0 Filesystem/dev_sda2 4096" | dmsetup create luks_volume
echo "0 `blockdev --getsz Filesystem/dev_sda2` crypt aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 `sha256sum forum_key_hex | head -c 64` 0 Filesystem/dev_sda2 4096" | dmsetup create luks_volume
as i found on:
http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions … master-key
(approved by you in the comment as it seems)
But both give me an error:
device-mapper: resume ioctl on luks_volume failed: Invalid argument
Command failed
Did i even do this right?
Also when i copied the partition to an external device dd_rescue observed 6 errors in blocks. So those might just be the cause of failure all the time.

[SOLVED] Sound (snd_hda_intel) not working after resume from suspend

Using the latest kernel 2.6.30.4, On HP2133, whenever I get back from resume, sound is not working.
Running the following brings back the sound, but that is obviously a hack:
fuser -k /dev/snd/*
rmmod snd_hda_intel
modprobe snd_hda_intel
/etc/rc.d/alsa start
I have on my /etc/modprobe/50-sound.conf:

Note: I also had X VT problems with 2.6.30.4 (xf86OpenConsole: VT_WAITACTIVE failed: Interrupted system call). Those were solved too by downgrading to 2.6.29.

[SOLVED] Gnome does not mount ipod after system upgrade

I did a system upgrade today (2009.12.04) and now gnome does not mount my ipod video (gnome used to mount the ipod without problems before de upgrade).
Here is some information about the system messages:
Last lines of the output of dmesg before plugging the ipod:
wlan0: associated
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready
wlan0: no IPv6 routers present
After plugging it:
wlan0: associated
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready
wlan0: no IPv6 routers present

Finally found the problem was the Ipod itself. After a soft reset everything worked again.

X reads first configuration in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d then /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
When you copy 10-evdev.conf file into /etc/X11 you completly override previous system configuration. It's the reason copying synaptics configuration file into /etc/X11 fixes the issue
Defining default system configuration in /etc/X11 with previous xorg was a mistake, now it's fixed.
Wiki should be fixed. It's not a packaging bug, but a configuration bug.
@lordheavy
I agree with you that the new xf86-input-synaptics package is using the right configuration scheme, however it is breaking the functionality on every installed system. It was a packaging bug, which is now fixed, but it has to be handled manually by most users of previous versions. That's why I won't re-open the bug report FS#41589. Instead, I am asking here: shouldn't this change be notified to the users just like it has been done for most breaking changes on archlinux frontpage news?
By the way, thanks for your great work.

[SOLVED] GNOME terminal is completely blank

When I open the gnome terminal, it is completely blank, not the usual "$ user@computer". Any ideas?

Haha, silly me, the text was black on a black background. Gee do I feel stupid. Closing.

[SOLVED] gnome-terminal 3.12 won't start

After I upgraded to gnome 3.12, I my terminal refused to start with the error "Message did not receive a reply". It turns out that the issue was that I had previously installed vte3-mosh-fix from the AUR, and the new version of gnome-terminal was incompatible with that old version of vte3. Running "pacman -S vte3" fixed the problem for me. (And I think that mosh fix has been incorporated into the latest version too.) Posting in case anyone else runs into this.

The patch was indeed merged into the upstream, it's the only reason I haven't updated the PKGBUILD.
