Bug Description
when booting the herd 3 powerpc desktop cd, gnome doesn't start. the gnome splash shows, then disapears. only the default brown gradient shows.the mouse moves, right cliking does nothing.
i can CTRL+ALT+F1 to a terminal. top shows that metacity, nautilus, gnome-panel etc are running. nothing is at high cpu.
the date is correct, and lo is up.
there are no errors in dmesg.
running
DISPLAY=:0 gnome-terminal
and switching to CTRL+ALT+F7 shows the window boarder of gnome-terminal, but inside the boarder is just white.
running
killall esd
causes the booting and loading of gnome to continue
