Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome

Loaded Kubuntu 8.04.1 from CDROM - loaded updates - everything worked!

Loaded Ubuntu Firefox - did not work
- start from GUI > some hard drive activity then nothing
- start from terminal > "bus error"
Loaded Aisleriot (gnome-games) - did not work
- Start at GUI > only - border shows - nothing inside the border - not populated
Loaded Blackjack - did not work
- Start at GUI > only - border shows - nothing inside the border - not populated
Downloaded Firefox 3.0.2 from Mozilla - did not work
- Start from GUI > some hard drive activity then nothing
- Start from terminal > "bus error"
- Start gThumb from GUI - border shows - nothing inside the border - not populated
- Start gthumb from terminal > mousepointer freezes on newline

- Start Fspot from GUI > Error "An unhandled exception was thrown: F-Spot cannot find the Dbus session bus. Make sure dbus is configured properly or start a new session for f-spot using "dbus-launch f-spot"
- dbus started at boot and running

Sounds almost like a Xulrunner 1.9.??? problem but other things are happening - using Xulrunner 1.9.0.1. I do not have Keytouch installed.

All KDE stuff works just fine

Using 3.5.10 - current files

p.s. I tried to load Kubuntu 8.04.1 with gnome apps on another computer. It took me more than 5 installs to get everything working. The failures included Xulrunner, Network Manager, and KeyTouch. This is the most troublesome install of Kubuntu that I have ever run into. This install onto my wife's computer is trouble also!

Today, 25 September 2008, I downloaded bugfixes to Xulrunner & security update to Firefox via Adept.

The problems still exist.
I tried checking the checksums with debsums -s but nothing showed.

fyi . . .

It simply sounds like the session bus is not running?

Moving to fspot since this bug will never get fixed if it is marked to affect kdebase, while it doesn't seem to be related to KDE at all.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Thanks in advance.
