[SOLVED] Upgraded System, Openbox now won't load after log in

I upgraded quite a few packages two days ago, none of which were openbox. When I rebooted, openbox didn't correctly load. I don't know how to describe the problem, but I can't seem to open anything from my menus, or run anything in openbox. However, my autostart file seems to load everything and wicd connects so I can use the ttys and browse.
I don't know where to start troubleshooting this. I've looked back at my /var/cache/pacman/pkg/, sorted by time to see the last packages that got updated. I downgraded certain packages one by one to see if anything specifically broke my system, but I had no luck. I downgraded linux, linux headers, xorg, xorg-common, and udev.
Thank you in advance.

You mean autostart.sh is now just autostart
Yes, it is just autostart now ;-)
I double checked, and all this seems to be fine. I haven't even touched openbox main configs since it updated back in August.
Is there an error log for when I log in?
I log in to openbox via slim, and then autostart should* start wicd, cairo-compmgr, nitrogen, conky, and tint2.
My wicd client seems to load because I can get on the internet (via elinks), part of my conky loads but not my lua rings script; nitrogen, cairo, and tint2 don't seem to load. When I right click, I still have access to my OB menu, but cannot launch anything.

[Solved] After upgrading system/VIrtualbox kernels won't load

After running an update on my system and trying to use Virtualbox I recieve this:
============================================================
WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module
available for the current kernel (3.16.4-1-ARCH) or it failed to
load. Please reinstall the kernel module virtualbox-host-modules or
if you don't use our stock kernel compile the modules with
sudo dkms autoinstall
You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
VBoxHeadless: Error -1908 in suplibOsInit!
VBoxHeadless: Kernel driver not installed
VBoxHeadless: Tip! Make sure the kernel module is loaded. It may also help to reinstall VirtualBox.
============================================================
I have tried to reinstall virtualbox and the kernels, I've manually reloaded my kernel modules, and I still have no luck.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Solution: Reboot system.... *Facepalm*

I just updated to the latest aperture, i have projects previously saved on a drive (in the old version) that now won't load... how do i update them?

Hi,
i just updated to the latest aperture, i have projects previously saved on a drive (in the old version) that now won't load... how do i update them?

But, unless I missed something, you are doing the repair with Aperture 3.5 so if 3.5 can't open an earlier library before doing the upgrade then unless I'm missing something the library will be upgraded before the repair is run, no?
OT:
You got me there, Frank - I wondered about the same thing, but Aperture is behaving differently, when upgrading a library, depending on if you are launching into the First Aid Tools or not.
I repeated my experiments, to explore this difference:
I restored an Aperture 3.4.3 library and launched the First Aid Tools:
Apertur went directly into First Aid Mode without first asking to upgrade.
Then "Repair" asked to be allowed to upgrade the library as you predicted.
During the upgrade "Aperture"showed "Rebuilding", not "Repairing" or "upgrading".
Second experiment: When I only double-click the 3.4.3 library instead of repairing, the upgrade alert is very different:
It takes a shorter time and does not show "rebuilding".
I am quite certain, that Aperture will use a different upgrade prodecure, when launched into the First Aid panel for repairing or rebuilding.

Old emails won't load after upgrade to Mountain Lion

See if anything in here will fix it:
1. Hold down the Command and Option keys as you click the iPhoto icon.
The Photo Library First Aid window opens:

After IOS8 can't connect to App Store or ITunes Store on IPad 2.   Tried logging out but now won't let me log back in!

Completely frustrated and considering dropping Apple. My IPad 2 is quickly becoming a brick after loading IOS 8. No WIFI problems, IOS up to date, logged out of the App Store and ITunes in settings - but no app store access, no ITunes access and my photos now won't load to IMAC. Any suggestions? Jeez, I really liked my Apple products, too...

Back up all data.
Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
          8.8.8.8
          8.8.4.4
That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
In Safari, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
Notes:
1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself. Remember that you must click Apply in order for any changes to take effect.
2. I don't use Google DNS myself, though I have tested it, and I'm not recommending it or any other DNS provider; the server addresses are offered merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist.

My apps won't load after updating to iOS4.3.2. What to do?

My apps won't load after updating to iOS4.3.2. What to do?

Yes, I tried that (thanks for the suggestion, though!). In my music app, when I click on certain songs, the screen moves to try to start the song, but then it bounces back to the menu screen without playing the song. On many albums, when I click on the first song, a song about halfway through the album will start to play rather than that first song. My other apps seems to be fixed, but not the music function.

Lightroom 5 won't load after 30 day trial of Lightroom3 error.

I tried the 30 day trial of Lightroom 3 that I got with the Photoshop Elements 10 when I got my new computer. The Lightroom loaded one picture and said I had an error and would try to find a solution. I bought Lightroom5 and tried to install it and it keeps going back to the error of Lightroom 3 trial. I tried to delete all programs associated with Lightroom and reinstall, but nothing happens.

it just reads "Lightroom-Opening Catalog:New Years Day 2014 031.JPG.Ircat assertion failed!
New Years day 2014 is a folder and 031 is the picture in the folder that I tried to enhance in the 30 day free trial of Lightroom 3. I bought Lightroom 5 from B &H and it appears to be hung up on the Lightroom 3 trial.

I just upgraded to Safari 5.0.6 and my gmail now won't load. Please help.

I just upgraded my Safari to 5.0.6 (using Mac OS X 10.5.8) on my MacBook Pro and now my G mail account won't load...all I get is a blank page. G mail still loads with Firefox (which, for some reason, I do not have "permission" on my laptop to upgrade). I have deleted the cookies, cleared the cache, but still can't get G mail to work. Does anyone have a solution? Thanks so much.

Can you easily do this with Mac mail?
Yes you can.
Open Mac Mail. From the menu bar click Mail / Preferences then select the General tab.
Then select Accounts from the menu then the Account Information tab.
Click + (plus) under the Accounts window on the left.
Enter your name, your Gamil user name and password then click Create.
To start a new mail window, from the menu bar click File / New Message
Click the pop up menu next to: From
Select your Gmail account.
Click Attach form the new mail message window to include photos or links or just drag items to the window from your Desktop.

After doing a system restore, Firefox won't load pages.

I restored my laptop a couple of days ago (from a previous date, not a full system restore), now firefox will open to the home page (google), but will not load any other page. It doesn't even bring up the "page won't load" page, it just continually says 'connecting' forever. I also noticed, even when I first open firefox, and it opens the google homepage, it doesn't have google.com in the address bar, it has 'about:home'. Internet explorer seems to be working fine, and my internet connection is fine, so I am not sure what the problem seems to be.

hello rlyslowff, one thing you could try is to remove all program rules for firefox from your firewall/security software and let it detect the program again...
please also [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/ update your plugins] (some of them are out-dated & have security vulnerabilities that are actively exploited on the web).
in case this didn't solve the issue, go to the firefox ''menu ≡ > help ? > troubleshooting information'', copy the contents of that page and paste them here into a reply on the forum, as this might give us further clues what is going on...

Project won't load after upgrade to 10.1.3

Howdy,
I'm working on a series of videos, each in a separate project, but all in the same library.
I did the bulk of the editing in 10.1, but recently upgraded to 10.1.3. FCPX did it's usual "update projects and events" routine when I opened the library in 10.1.3 for the first time. All my projects appear to be fine, except one...
This project is about 30 minutes long, with a handful of different clips – nothing huge... but it won't load. I get the spinning beach ball for a few minutes, then a system alert saying I've run out of application memory. I check Activity Monitor, and sure enough, FCPX is using over 12GB of RAM! It seems FCPX gets stuck in some sort of loop while trying to load this project, and I'm not sure what to do about it... Any help would be appreciated.
System info:
iMac
OSX 10.9.5
3.5GHz Core i7
16GB RAM

OK, I think I resolved my issue. I hadn't noticed that there was one missing media file in the project that wouldn't open. I didn't notice because normally, FCPX would open the project and swap a "missing media" icon for the absent file in the timeline, but in this case it simply refused to open the project. I re-imported the missing file, and now there are two of them in my media browser. If I delete any one of them, they both disappear... Odd.
In any case, my project opens now and that's good. What I don't understand is what happened to that missing file in the first place. I didn't delete it or move it. It seems to have been kicked out of the FCPX database upon upgrade to version 10.1.3, which by itself is a little troubling... and I fear there may still be similar database issues that I haven't discovered yet lurking in other projects
Here's hoping all of FCPX's "growing pains" get resolved soon.
Thanks for your help, Russ.

Pogo Games won't load after upgrade to Lion

Upgraded to Lion recently. Everything seems to be working okay, except that I play a lot of games on Pogo.com, and now none of the games will load. I made sure everything (Java, etc) was up to date, but none of it fixed the problem. I tried the games on both Safari and Firefox, and got the same result. Any game I try to open just says "Now Loading (Name of Game)..." and that's all it does.
I went back to an older mac that is still running Snow Leopard, and the games loaded just fine. So I figured it was an issue with Lion.
BUT... on the Snow Leopard computer, I noticed I had an old version of Firefox installed, so I upgraded that to the newest version, and now Pogo games won't load on that either! So, the problem isn't actually Lion. It's the newest versions of the browsers.
I tried contacting EA (pogo) support, but their help page is completely useless. I thought I'd check and see if anyone here has any ideas.
thanks,
Dan

I'm using Fouiny packages for a year (now it's cvs-20060621-1), as he provides ~all of them & they worked without issue ever since. Latest version's getting a bit old

AI file that has loaded many times previously into FC, now won't load

I am starting to lose my mind working with Flash Catalyst.   I have created a file within AI CS5, imported into FC CS5 numerous times, now all of a sudden it won't load. The error message "Error initializing import libraries" appears.   I had this issue happen before, but after much frustration, I went back and re-created the AI file under the Flash Catalyst New Document profile and that seemed to solve the problem, now, even with an AI file created with the FC document profile, a document that has loaded into FC MANY times successfully, all of a sudden won't load.   Of course I am at the end of the project and was ready to export the final SWF files and it does this. I am about ready to throw my computer out the window at this point.
It is not a large file, under 1MB in fact, so that is not the issue.   Is there some kind of FC cache somewhere on my computer that I need to clear out?   I have scoured the internet looking for a solution as I have a deadline of Wednesday of this week for this project and I can't find anything helpful. This is beyong frustrating and seems to make no sense as the AI file has imported successfully in it's current state many times.
I tried to rebuild the project, move its file location, rename it, cut and paste it into FC and nothing seems to work. In fact, I can't cut and paste a simple object at this point without getting the "Error initializing import libraries" error message.   PLEASE HELP ME ADOBE!   I AM DYING HERE!!!   Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

I found the FC log files and the log for my last attempt at importing my AI file is below. Do I have a Java issue?   This is WAY above my pay grade, but I'm hoping maybe it's a simple fix? Run Java update?

ITunes won't load after recent upgrade

I see I'm not the only one with this problem. I've been through the FAQ and removed and downloaded iTunes and Quicktime separately multiple times, but iTunes won't load. It will be difficult to buy more songs like this.
I've a Sigma Tel Audio driver installed by Dell. I'm running McAfee anti virus. Let me know what other info will help somebody to help me solve this.
Thanks.

a few questions before proceeding.
are you getting an error message? if so, what does it say? include error message numbers if you're getting any.
or are you getting no error messages whatsoever when you try to launch itunes?
if no error message, a few more preliminary questions aimed at narrowing in on possible culprits.
(1) do you have Norton Internet Security 2005 installed on the PC?
(2) try launching your QuickTime. does it:
(a) launch perfectly fine?
(b) fail to launch with an error message? (if so, what does it say?)
(c) exhibit other peculiar behavior? (if so, could you describe it for us?)
(3) reboot the PC. bring up your Task Manager, and click on the "Processes" tab. now try to launch itunes again.
does an "itunes.exe" process appear in the Processes tab? if so, does it persist in there or does it disappear after a few seconds?
