LFS10.1: Gnome session says 'Oops something went wrong'. Unable to start Gnome.
by LinLuc from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5J91A)
Hi All,
I am trying to install Gnome on my LFS 10.1 desktop. Unfortunately, when I try to start gnome-session, I get the message 'Oops something went wrong'. So far I do not get any fruther.
From the command prompt I try to start:
XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11 gnome-session
from Journalctl -b I see the following worrying message:
dbus-daemon[491]: [session uid=1000 pid=489] Activating service name='org.freedesktop.systemd1' requested by ':1.8' (uid=1000 pid=481 comm="/opt/gnome-10.1/libexec/gnome-sessio>
dbus-daemon[491]: [session uid=1000 pid=489] Activated service 'org.freedesktop.systemd1' failed: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1
gnome-session-binary[481]: WARNING: Could not get session id for session. Check that logind is properly installed and pam_systemd is getting used at login.
gnome-session-binary[481]: WARNING: Could not get session id for session. Check that logind is properly installed and pam_systemd is getting used at login.
Any suggesttions, how to get any fruther to the solution and getting gnome running on my desktop?
