[opensuse] Gnome environment failure on IBM X40 laptop
Fresh install of 13.1. Gnome environment seems only partially funtional. Any attmempt to investigate environment causes system to crash. The environmetn has obvious application menus or context menus. The 'Activities' icon does nothing. Settings and time/network panels seem to work. But unable to explore far in any direction after two attempts without the system crashing and throwing me back to the login screen after displaying the following error: """ Oh no! Something has gone wrong. A problem has occured and the system can't recover. Please log out and try again. <log out> """ I have to get this machine working with some degree of urgency. I intend to reinstall with KDE. But I can run tests if this can be of any help. Please send instructions quickly if desired. I have only today to run them and may have no access to email or a working computer from tomorrow. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
