michael_demonio | excuse for bother you | 05:33 |
jrib | do you have a gui? | 05:33 |
=== Grungebunny [n=evil@24-171-65-231.dhcp.mtvr.il.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu-classroom | ||
michael_demonio | but i need help | 05:33 |
michael_demonio | i don't have a gui | 05:34 |
jrib | k | 05:34 |
michael_demonio | i'm searching at forums | 05:34 |
jrib | so you are on a different computer? | 05:34 |
michael_demonio | no, i'm on my pc | 05:34 |
jrib | you are using xchat to talk to me? | 05:34 |
michael_demonio | i began session at recover mode, now i'm root | 05:35 |
jrib | ok, never mind, open up a terminal | 05:35 |
michael_demonio | yes, i suposed that here are the best ubunters | 05:35 |
michael_demonio | i have it already opened | 05:35 |
michael_demonio | i'm from colombia | 05:35 |
jrib | ok, now what is the name of the user with the problem? | 05:36 |
michael_demonio | demonio | 05:36 |
michael_demonio | look, i started to change my theme configuration, and then, my pc was freezed | 05:37 |
jrib | ok, at the terminal, you type this: rm ~demonio/.{X,ICE}authority | 05:37 |
michael_demonio | then i restart my pc, and i realized i cannot begin my session | 05:37 |
jrib | right, you said it just gets stuck after you login | 05:37 |
michael_demonio | no, i enter my username (demonio), and then the password | 05:38 |
jrib | ok | 05:39 |
michael_demonio | later, the splash screen is shown, but then nothing is loaded, there is no graphic interface, no buttons, and no panels, i cannot see anything | 05:39 |
jrib | try the command I said and then try logging in again. If it still does not work, come back | 05:39 |
michael_demonio | what does rm ~demonio/.{X,ICE}authority do? | 05:39 |
jrib | deletes .Xauthority and .ICEauthority files for the demonio user | 05:40 |
jrib | they get recreated automatically | 05:40 |
michael_demonio | and what if it doesn't result? | 05:41 |
jrib | then you come back | 05:41 |
michael_demonio | ok | 05:42 |
michael_demonio | thank you very much, i hope i can use my session with that | 05:42 |
Grungebunny | when does class start? | 05:43 |
jrib | Grungebunny: right now, I don't think any are scheduled | 05:44 |

jrib | umm | 05:55 |
jrib | ok | 05:56 |
michael_demonio | what is the ascii code? | 05:56 |
jrib | ok, at the terminal, you type this: rm /home/demonio/.{X,ICE}authority | 05:56 |
jrib | you don't need ~ in that one | 05:56 |
jrib | it should have no output. If it does have output, then something is wrong and you need to tell me :) | 05:57 |
michael_demonio | i have to type that now, or starting my session | 05:57 |
jrib | at a terminal | 05:58 |
michael_demonio | i remember you i'm at recovery mode as root | 05:58 |
jrib | right, taht should work | 05:58 |
michael_demonio | so, now i have typed that, press enter? | 05:58 |
jrib | yes | 05:59 |
michael_demonio | i did it | 05:59 |
jrib | no output? | 05:59 |
michael_demonio | so, do i have to reboot now? | 06:00 |
jrib | ok | 06:00 |
michael_demonio | there was no output | 06:00 |
michael_demonio | i typed that, and then appeared root again | 06:00 |
jrib | good | 06:00 |
michael_demonio | are you sure it won't erase my files and data? | 06:01 |
jrib | yes | 06:01 |
michael_demonio | ok, because i have many videos and music | 06:02 |
michael_demonio | when i typed rm ~demonio/.{X,ICE}authority nothing happened | 06:03 |
jrib | you should try logging in now | 06:03 |
michael_demonio | but when i typed rm /home/demonio/.{X.ICE}authority, the output was: cannot remove .... no such a file or directory | 06:04 |
jrib | that's ok | 06:04 |
michael_demonio | ok | 06:04 |

michael_demonio | hi | 06:18 |
michael_demonio | jrib nothing result | 06:18 |
jrib | k | 06:18 |
michael_demonio | when i start my session there is no desktop to show | 06:18 |
jrib | try: mv /home/demonio/.gnome2/session{,.backup} | 06:18 |
michael_demonio | and what does it do? | 06:19 |
jrib | renames ~/.gnome2/session to ~/.gnome2/session.backup | 06:20 |
michael_demonio | does it affect my files? | 06:21 |
jrib | no | 06:21 |
michael_demonio | the output was: cannot stat | 06:22 |
jrib | what does this return: ls /home/demonio/.gnome2/session | 06:23 |
michael_demonio | no such a file or directory | 06:24 |
jrib | strange | 06:24 |
jrib | do you have /home/demonio/.xsession-errors ? Can you pastebin that file? | 06:25 |
michael_demonio | what i have to do? | 06:25 |
jrib | !pastebin | 06:25 |
ubotu | pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 06:25 |
michael_demonio | do i have to reinstall the ubuntu? | 06:25 |
jrib | no | 06:25 |
michael_demonio | there is a window where says name, syntax and text | 06:26 |
michael_demonio | what do i do there? | 06:27 |
jrib | opem /home/demonio/.xsession-errors on your computer and copy and paste the contents to the window where it says "text" | 06:27 |
jrib | open* | 06:27 |
michael_demonio | by console or by nautilus? | 06:28 |
jrib | doesn't matter | 06:28 |
michael_demonio | what have i to select at syntax? | 06:29 |
jrib | doesn't matter | 06:29 |
michael_demonio | in name, type my real name? | 06:31 |
jrib | anything you want | 06:31 |
jrib | I'll be back in 5 minutes | 06:31 |
michael_demonio | ok, thanks | 06:31 |
jrib | after you pastebin, paste the url here | 06:31 |
michael_demonio | the classroom url? | 06:31 |
jrib | and you may want to try logging in one more time, to see if ~/.gnome2/session gets created | 06:31 |
jrib | michael_demonio: the url for the web page you get after you press "submit" | 06:32 |
michael_demonio | i don't understand | 06:33 |
michael_demonio | the url i pasted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClassroomTranscripts | 06:35 |
jrib | ok, that's not what I mean | 06:40 |
jrib | let's start over | 06:40 |
jrib | !pastebin | 06:40 |
ubotu | pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 06:40 |
jrib | you have your browser open to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org? | 06:40 |
michael_demonio | yes | 06:40 |
jrib | now in the Text section you have copied what is in your ~/.xsession-errors file and pasted it? | 06:41 |
michael_demonio | yes | 06:41 |
jrib | now, press the Submit button | 06:41 |
michael_demonio | in name i put michael_demonio | 06:41 |
michael_demonio | it doesnot says submit, it says paste | 06:42 |
jrib | ok, press that | 06:42 |
michael_demonio | ok | 06:42 |
jrib | now in your address bar, tell me what url there is | 06:43 |
michael_demonio | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36910/ | 06:44 |
michael_demonio | and the first address was http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36906/ | 06:44 |
michael_demonio | and now what? | 06:46 |
jrib | now I have to go in a bit, but I will tell you a command that will reset your GNOME settings | 06:47 |
michael_demonio | ok, thank you so much | 06:47 |
michael_demonio | so, now i have to wait? | 06:48 |
jrib | do this command: mv ~demonio/.gnome2{,.backup}; mv ~demonio/.gconfd{,.backup}; mv ~demonio/.gconf{,.backup} | 06:48 |
jrib | you're settings will go away, but they are in the *.backup directories if you need something | 06:49 |
jrib | if it still doesn't work, it may be easier for you to create a new user and then copy the videos and documents from the old user to the new user. Or, ask in #ubuntu for more help | 06:50 |
jrib | good luck, any questions before I go? | 06:50 |
michael_demonio | wait | 06:53 |
michael_demonio | please | 06:53 |
michael_demonio | thank you, i will do that | 06:54 |
