lives aren't 'based on' boot.isos, they're separate compose processes.
ERR program: Error running metacity: SIGCHLD caught when trying to
start the X server.
the non-live installer uses metacity as its window manager. nothing else
does any more, so it's not surprising the live images (which all use
other window managers) don't have this issue.
And fpaste X.log gets me:
Error Uploading: [Errno -2] Name or service not known
odd, copy it off via a USB stick?
On another note, is there a way to get at least one full set (one
boot.iso, one live image, and one DVD image - if we're still going to
have them) using a non-debug kernel each week? Yesterday's rc6 kernel
is a non-debug kernel, but the workstation image failed to build today
so I'm pretty sure that means the next attempt will use the then
current kernel which will end up being a debug kernel. They are so
dreadfully slow… I just won't use them. I'm sure many people who might
be inclined to do more Rawhide testing don't want to use debug kernels
either because of how astronomically slow it makes everything.
I don't really find them 'astronomically' slow any more, now that
slub_debug is left off most of the time. Slightly slower than regular
kernels, sure, but perfectly fine for testing. Is it different on your
setup?
