Hi all, 1)Compiz-Fusion on Ubuntu 7.04 I am using Compiz-Fusion on a Ubuntu 7.04,ATi Radeon XPress 200 series onboard using the proprietary fglrx drivers and Xgl.Though the startxgl script for starting Xgl automatically on boot had a workaround for missing shutdown and reboot buttons,I'm missing my Suspend(Hibernate?) button.Isthere a workaround for this?
2)HAL problems I am the sole user on Ubuntu 7.04 hence my userid has system administration privileges subject to root password.Since I don't have a printer,I disabled cups in System-->Administration-->Services.Also, I disabled Bluetooth support and the second cron service(non-anacron one) and a couple other services.Since then,whenever I login,I'm faced with a dialog box saying "Couldn't initialize HAL" and even after supplying root password,I'm unable to access selected system administration components which include Users and Groups,Services,Network,etc.A dialog box pops up with this:
The configuration could not be loaded You are not allowed to access the system configuration.
The interesting thing is that after I enabled GUI root login by editing the /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf file,even when I login as root,I'm unable to access the above-mentioned components.The above-mentioned dialog box pops up for root as well. :o Can someone help or point out a resource please?
Turned out I had disabled the dbus service which is used by many system components to communicate among each other.Was solved by a single command to restart the service
sudo /etc/init.d/dbus start
Thence I could access the service-admin and re-enable the dbus service.Also,the missing suspend/hibernate buttons were also due to the above disabled dbus.As soon as the command was issued,they were back!
Thanx and regards, Easwar
