Well, not sure on gnome or KDE, but the above Xfce output looks like the problem is the Seg faults when trying to start up. :( Several other things to try: - If you create a new fresh user, can they login ok? (This would point to it being you users gtk theme, fonts setup or the like). - Could be some package leftover from your rawhide install causing issues, perhaps a 'yum list extras' to identify any packages that are not in repositories you have currently enabled? - Could you try and run xfwm4 under a debugger? 0) yum --enable-repo=core-debuginfo install xfwm4-debuginfo 1) Run X from a console, "xinit /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm &" 2) Switch to a console (Ctrl+Alt+F1) 3) Set the display "export DISPLAY=:0.0" 4) run "gdb /usr/bin/xfwm4" 5) if/when it crashes, run 'bt' and send me the backtrace. sean> sean sean> -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx sean> https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list kevin
