> gnome-session[7683]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Launching helper 'bash -c 'gnome-shell --help | grep -q gdm-mode && /usr/libexec/gnome-session-check-accelerated'' to know if session is runnable > gnome-session-check-accelerated: Helper exited with code 11 Gnome is refusing to run in gnome-shell mode because the tool that checks for opengl acceleration is exiting with an error. To find out what the specific error is, please post the output of the following command (needs to be run from a terminal in X): LANG=C /usr/libexec/gnome-session-check-accelerated-helper > Portage 2.1.10.37 (hardened/linux/amd64, gcc-4.5.3, glibc-2.14.1-r0, > 3.1.1-grsec x86_64) @gnome, does anyone know if gnome-3.2 might have problems on a hardened (grsec) system? If I run Gnome 3.2 on a kernel without grsec Gnome-Shell is running fine, just checked it out. Anyway there are those outputs U are asking for: From Gnome fallback mode command output is empty, when I run this command in X with no graphic environment I get this: "gnome-session-is-accelerated: No X display" Unfortunately, if you want to use gnome-shell, you will probably have to give up grsec: > <chithead> tetromino: 3d acceleration and grsec don't mix, you have to disable so much that the result will cannot be considered secure any longer (In reply to comment #3) > From Gnome fallback mode command output is empty, when I run this command in X > with no graphic environment I get this: > > "gnome-session-is-accelerated: No X display" I apologize if I was unclear. Please run that command in a terminal *in a graphic environment* of some sort (doesn't matter whether it's gnome, or fluxbox, or even just startx with twm and xterm - anything X11-based will do). No problem my bad. Anyway i run this command in Gnome terminal with no effect. No output at all :| About that 3D acceleration @chithead is wrong. In standard Hardened profile nvidia drivers and nvidia USE flag are hard-masked in profile because there is a no way to successfully install them. But if U unmask USE flag and driver U can patch them and install with no problem on your PC with patch from grsecurity team. This was not only Gentoo issue, and it was solved long time ago. I really don't understand why Gentoo Hardened team refuse to add this drivers in our repo. I play 3D games on my Hardened + Nvidia like Witcher, WoT, WoW, and many many others with any problem at all. And like I write before, full 3D support. Patches: https://grsecurity.net/~paxguy1/nvidia-drivers-285.05.09-pax-const.patch https://grsecurity.net/~paxguy1/nvidia-drivers-285.05.09-pax-usercopy.patch ps.

I mean patches not drivers
(In reply to comment #5) > No problem my bad. Anyway i run this command in Gnome terminal with no effect. > No output at all :| If there are no problems, it would be just returning with successful exit code. Issue an "echo $?" command right after the check-accelerated command. If it outputs 0, then it was a successful executing code and GNOME ought to be trying to use non-fallback Output: Iluvatar pryka # LANG=C /usr/libexec/gnome-session-check-accelerated-helper Iluvatar pryka # echo $? 0 Hi there, could you update us on your situation ? |
