 Posted: Tue Jul 17, 2018 7:18 pm Post subject: gnome desktop & vnc issue |
 |
|
Hello,
I have just installed gentoo.
1. I also selected profile desktop:
selected profile 7.0/desktop/gnome.
2. The updated world, which tool a lot of time.
emerge --ask --update --deep --newuse @world
Yet, checking make.conf, I see that there is no USE flag in file, shouldn't there be ?
I then tried to do "startx" , but there is no such command.
Next thing , I installed:
libvncserver
tightvnc
on starting vncserver, and connecting from remote I succeeded in connection, yet I only get a blank screen.
On doing "startx", I only get 3 terminals. (yet with vnc connection I always see a blank screen)
I then tried to install lightd, but trying to execyte lightd, I get:
"Failed to get system bus: could not connect: no such file or directory.
Failed to get D-bus connection"
Is there any idea how I should fix it to get a vnc connection.
Thank you,
ranran

You should install gnome or gnome-light, your emerge command perform an packages upadate but only if are installed

Check with emerge --info, some use flags are provided by profile but not directly added in make.conf.

I'll try that.
Does the fail in startx explains why I also fail in vnc remote connection ?
Thanks,

I have difficulties with it.
I hope someone can help.
I tried to install gnome with
emerge --ask gnome-base/gnome
I got this error
| Code: | These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

I also tried adding to /etc/portage/make.confExample global USE flags :
USE="-qt4 -qt5 -kde X gtk gnome systemd"
and did:
emerge -avuND world
Yet, on repeating emerge --ask gnome-base/gnome, I get same results 
emerge --info

You use OperRC or SystemD?

I'm not sure .......
I installed new gentoo a day ago, then changed profile from 7.0/* to to 7.0/desktop/gnome.
and updated world.
I then added to make.conf several USE flags including systemd, as described in gnome wiki here:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GNOME/Guide
Thanks for any idea,

ranran,
The three xterms is Xorgs default response to startx.
If you want something else, you must install and configure it.
By default, Gnome requires systemd. There is a systemd stage3 that make that easy.
You can switch from OpenRC to systemd or even run Gnome without systemd.
Gnome without systemd is not supported by the Gentoo devs.
Your error | Code: | !!! The ebuild selected to satisfy ">=net-misc/networkmanager-0.9.8:=[introspection]" has unmet requirements.
- net-misc/networkmanager-1.10.10::gentoo USE="bluetooth consolekit dhclient introspection modemmanager ncurses nss policykit ppp systemd wext wifi -audit -connection-sharing -dhcpcd -elogind -gnutls -json -ofono -ovs -resolvconf (-selinux) -teamd -test -vala" ABI_X86="(64) -32 (-x32)"
The following REQUIRED_USE flag constraints are unsatisfied:
at-most-one-of ( consolekit elogind systemd ) |
Is due to both USE="consolekit systemd" being on. The error is "at-most-one-of"

Hi NeddySeagon,
What do you think is best to do ?
I don't mind, just need a desktop and vnc.
I don't understand... should I reinstall gentoo and use another stage3 ... that will be really bad if I must reinstall it from beginning
Another question, should I have seen the 3 terminals on vnc ?
Why I only get a blank screen ?
Another strage thing is that after update world the vncserver utility was removed.
Is because it is installed with
USE="server" emerge tigervnc
Thanks,
ranran
