I downloaded Fedora 20 from here, created the USB media using the liveusb creator and then started the install, it wouldn't verify my installation source (usb) and i couldn't install. I thought my HASH/md5sum was bad so i checked it. The sha 256 matched.
well i got it installed but gnome crashes as soon as I click on activities, I did a quick search and didn't find any solution, any ideas ? in the meantime i've installed KDE via yum install @kde-desktop and that does work when i switch to it, however i prefer Gnome
Doesn't look like anything serious, just warnings no errors. You could try cat /var/log/message | grep error maybe we'll get more info from that..What happens when gnome crashes, you get a blanc screen? Can you switch to like the virtual console, then login in there and try: startx. And see if gnome starts backup again?
Did you try the fix <a data-ipb="nomediaparse" href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=972600#c13">here</a>? Cuz it sounded alot like your problem about, when using activities crashing? Make a backup of the original file first. Oh crap, I just realized you are running 32bit so you aren't going to have that path: bz_wrap_comment_text">/usr/lib64/gedit/plugins/beesu.py
Quote:<div>sorry not following you, what do you mean a virtual console ?
</div>
I mean ctrl+alt+f1 then login with your account, and then try the command. startx to see if the gnome starts up again? If so then try to hit activities again and see what happens, if it still happens than the last thing I can think of is to fully remove/uninstall gnome and reinstall gnome, since the logs don't show anything strange(no error's just warnings).
yum groupremove Desktop
yum groupinstall Desktop
or however it is listed as in fedora [img]<___base_url___>//public/style_emoticons/default/wink.png[/img]
