After some reinstallation/configuration/partition resizing work (I really can't say where the point of failure was, but see below for details), I ended up with unity
not working anymore, a situation essentially similar to this or this: login works, and then I just get a blank screen.
I've tried several things listed in those questions, like restarting various stuff, purging and reinstalling compiz
, unity
, and ubuntu-desktop
, or deleteting their config files. Also using compizconfig-settings-manager
and re-enabling the Unity-plugin didn't help (although it was disabled, in case that's relevant information).
I then just tried to install alternative desktop environments and display mangers, and that's where things started to get weird: namely, it turned out that lxde
and openbox
do work under both lightdm
and gdm
, while unity
and gnome-shell
don't work on either (after login, just a background image appears and nothing more).
One additional thing that sometimes happened in lxde
was that an "Internal Error" box showed up, containing (among others) the following information:
Title: xorg crashed with SIGABRT in __libc_message()
CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins
(but this only showed up after I already reinstalled and changed many things, so it might be related to problem or not).
Now, I have no idea where the failing is actually happening, but I suspect compiz
...
What I actually was doing before this happended:
unity
, lightdm
and ubuntu-desktop
did work/home
from the old installation, which is on a third partition (3), as /home
for the new installation (and setting this in the new fstab
)~
which I thought are not needed anymoreunity-tweak-tool
, but only to increase the number of virtual workspacesAfter the last reboot, said things happended. I don't think the partitioning stuff plays any role, but I mention it for completeness; but maybe my reusing the old /home
did something weird? On the other hand, I (think I) rebooted at least once with it mounted as /home
of the new install, without problems.
I also use a dual-monitor setup, but that has never caused any problems.
The question is: is there anything else I could do for getting unity
back and gnome-shell
work? Or should I just reinstall everything -- in which case, should I not just reuse the old /home
, or would that not be a problem?
Probably some configuration file has gone wrong. Most applications build a default configuration if they don't find thei config directory.
Using a console save your config directories (those starting their name with a ".") into a new folder (e.g. ~/old_configs) - look what happens.
