On openSUSE 11.3/Gnome 2.30 I added the 1-click Smeegol installation.
Now I have removed the ksmolt package and still this happens. Normal login to Gnome works ok.
Is this a known issue?
Um well if you have removed ksmolt - then no I haven't seen or heard of
Trying to select a Smeego session and logon just turned back to the gdm login menu. Then I ran 'zypper dup' which upgraded some packages from the Netbook Meego repo. But the same happened trying to login. this issue. Can you confirm what sort of hardware you are running it on? Mainly graphics card, as we don't employ SSE3 almost any CPU should work. Also do you have GNOME3 installed?
The old AMD K7 based PC: ATI Rage 128 RF Driver Info #0: XFree86 v4 Server Module: ati Color Depths: 8, 15, 16, 24 Extensions: Options: Driver Info #1: XFree86 v4 Server Module: ati 3D Support: yes Color Depths: 16 Extensions: dri Options: Config Status: cfg=new, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown Attached to: #11 (PCI bridge) Gnome3 is not installed (as far as can see). -------------- In the meantime I have also installed Smeegol on a more powerful Xeon 5160@3GHz workstation with nVidia Quadro FX 550 running openSUSE 11.3 x86_64/Gnome 2.30. After the initial Smeegol 1-click installation where I also here accepted the neccessary vendor changes, removed ksmolt, logout, selected Smeegol session and tried to login, this only brought back the gdm login menu. But after login to Gnome, ran 'zypper up' and logout, I was able to login to a Smeego session. Later I also ran 'zypper dup'. I have to admit that this is my first look at the Smeego/Meego gui. The first stupid user issues/questions I encountered and wonder if this are know issues are: - The Internet button reported Internet connection was broken and the network button reported no network available. This was on a wired network workstation and Firefox did connect to Internet as normal. - The main Smeego toolbar was fixed at the top of the screen and didn't hide automatically. That is, this toolbar also hided the top of opened appliacation windows like Firefox, so that I couldn't quit Firefox from the File>Exit menu on the top left or with the Close window button on the top right side. - Where is the button to logout from the Smeego session? So far I just have used Ctrl-Alt-F1 and reboot from the console.
