help! my system seems borked
Posted: Tue Jan 26, 2010 8:23 pm
So, I installed Amahi and had everything running fine. I then wanted to install Virtual Box, so I did that, as well as DKMS (which VB seemed to want). Everything was ok, except VB wouldn't run the install of Windows XP. When I asked on the Fedora forums, and showed them the error message I was getting, they said I needed to install gcc, which I did using this:
yum install gcc gcc-c++ ccache autoconf automake
The good news is that I installed gcc w/o a problem. The bad news is when I restarted, it took about 5x as long as it usually does to get to the login screen, and then it look literally 5 minutes to get to the desktop. The shortcuts on my desktop are missing, and I got this error:
Could not display "x-nautilus-desktop:///".
Error: DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
Please select another viewer and try again.
I can still get on line, but the desktop is missing, and it takes forever to run any Fedora apps...I don't know if this has anything to do with Amahi, but I wanted to run it by here and see if anyone had any thoughts.
