Problem with fresh install (mate, sanity check)

Postby mgfmlkd on Fri May 04, 2012 1:48 pm

Fresh install, get this

Code: Select all
/usr/lib/MateConf/mateconf-sanity-check-2 exited with a status 256


No top bar/menu in mate, programs not starting.

Thanks

[Edit] your original post and add [SOLVED] once your question is resolved.

“The people are my God” stressing the factor determining man’s destiny lies within man not in anything outside man, and thereby defining man as the dominator and remoulder of the world.

Yes, how is that solving my problem? :)

FYI it was a problem with the permissions on the home folder b/c I had invalid chars in the user name.

You can't ever expect someone to help you when you give no information at all. Vincent was trying to make you read the Forum Guidelines, which explain how to get help, and you obviously didn't. Please provide more information the next time because our Magic Crystal Ball is currently borken.

Danko.
Cheer up! Things are getting worse at a slower rate.
