Fedora 20: After running yum update the Mate Terminal doesn't start anymore

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



 I ran "yum update" on my Fedora 20 system a few days ago. I normally
don't do this as something always breaks and in this case it was the
Mate-Terminal. I already had a few terminals open so I can still use the
system. Clicking on either the Terminal icon in the panel, or using
Applications->Mate Terminal does the same thing: There's a message on the
bottom panel that says "Starting MATE" that stays there for about 6
seconds and then it disappears. No new terminal is created. I can still
use my existing terminals and I can create a new one if I run
"mate-terminal &" in it. I have looked at the Properties dialog of the
Terminal and nothing seems out of place (i.e. looks just like my other
systems).

  I have not rebooted yet in case there is something I should do first.
Any ideas? Of course a reboot might just fix this but I wanted to ask
before I did that. Or maybe a reboot is needed after an update and I am
too ignorant to know this.

  BTW, I tried to find this problem on the net but did not have any luck.
Also, this is not a critical issue, the system seems fine otherwise.
