gnome Live DVD crashes


Description of problem:
Gnome never starts(?) in
Mageia 5, Alpha 2, Gnome Live DVD.

You get a frown face with this message...
   Oh no! Something has gone wrong.
   A problem has occurred and the system can't recover. All extensions have been disabled as a precaution.

and a "Log out" button.
Pressing the log out button takes you to the console messages.
There, you can only turn the power off the computer.
   

I tried a couple of ways to go back to gdm login manager, but I was unsuccessful.
I will attach the hardware list.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

lspcidrake -v (computer 2)

Gnome, now, works on computer 1, but not on this computer 2.

For
   Mageia 5, beta 2, LiveDVD, Gnome, 64bit

You start running the live media set up...
you set the key that will change your keyboard layout...
you press ok...
then the screen with the frown face appears...
clicking on log out button does nothing...

I had the same problem with the Mageia 5 beta 2 GNOME LiveDVD.

The "pre-configuration wizard" crashes after selecting the keyboard map and the message "Oh no ! Something has gone wrong." appears.

I selected French language, Zurich time zone and Swiss (French) keyboard map.

Because of this I cannot test the GNOME LiveDVD.

>>I selected French language, Zurich time zone and Swiss (French) keyboard map.

In my case, I tried with different options 
(language, time, keyboard shortcut, anything other I don't remember now).
It always crashed.

I tried again. You're right, it crashes whatever you select.
I hadn't tried whith other options.

There's nothing more useless than a testing liveDVD that you can't use to testâ¦

Please file new bugs, that's easier. Could be a different issue.

Colin: I guess this might be due to your changes?

Comment 11 Colin Guthrie 2015-02-09 22:41:49 CET
Nah doubt it's related to my changes. As I said in my post on the list I was getting this all the time while testing in virtualbox. When it happens, switch to the terminal and login as root (no passwd) then type "journalctl /usr/bin/Xorg | grep EE" to see the errors. There will likely be some about dri perms which I think is a red herring but the real issue should show up. Gonna guess a problem GLX and swrast. Undefined symbol while dlopen'ing.
Comment 12 nikos papadopoulos 2015-02-22 19:10:59 CET
Still there in 
   Mageia 5, beta 3, Gnome Live DVD, 64bit.

Now, before it gives you the smiling face, a message appears (from Mageia) about going to console and trying to fix the graphics configuration.

(Of course, you can't "fix" anything.The problem isn't there with KDE. So, it's, most likely a Gnome issue.)
