Package: gnome-core
Severity: normal
Version: 2.0.6
Synopsis: XFree86 Crashes During Bootup
Bugzilla-Product: gnome-core
Bugzilla-Component: gnome-terminal
BugBuddy-GnomeVersion: 2.0 (2.0.3)

Description:
Description of Problem:

It appears that this Gnome crash may have someting to do with the 
boot up process on this machine.  Anyways, using grub to boot into
RedHat, the XServer crashes, claiming that the ViewSonic PF790
monitor settings cannot be found or are corrupted.  A text screen
appears asking if you want to debug.  A new windows pops up
where you can edit the monitor type and monitor dpi.  Entering this
data, (this has to be done each time when booting into RedHat)
then starts the login process, were apon this Gnome crash occurs.
The RedHat session begins but in a low resolution screen mode.  The
24bit 1072x920 screen mode cannot be set.  Other minipulations in
the OS environment seem slow or are intermittent.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1.  Log out of winxp or RedHat 
2.  grub boot starts
3.  choose RedHat OS
4.  the rest happens as described above.

Actual Results:

RedHat graphical windows environment doesn't Run

Expected Results:

I expect to be running the GUI environment.

How often does this happen?

So far, at each boot up!

Additional Information:

That's it

Comment 1 Kjartan Maraas 2002-10-27 19:34:32 UTC

Should be fixed in a later release. Don't know when Red Hat will have
an errata out, but you could try the packages from rawhide.
