Re: Xorg7 -> Gnome problems [solved]

I have the same problem as jardasmid, I tried the suggested
pacman -S libxss
and it didn't help.

Here's the error I get, and I have already installed libxss.

The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_WorkspaceSwitcherApplet".

The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_WindowListApplet".

Re: Xorg7 -> Gnome problems [solved]

When you log in, a dialog box comes up and says

The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_WorkspaceSwitcherApplet".
Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration?
With the buttons "Delete" and     "Don't Delete"

No error codes are given.

I tried to start the applets in a console window to get some error codes, no joy there.

Is there a log file somewhere that I can look in for an error code?

The program isn't debugged until the last user is dead.
