Hi Dick & Everyone, I just installed Fedora Core 1 yesterday and after updating it through Redhat's servers, I ran into the exact same problems that Dick did. I finally have X up and running again, but I'm not sure how to get gnome-panel-applets running again. They give me the same error: "The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_MailcheckApplet" Details: Child process did not give an error message, unknown failure occurred" Is there any way you could give me a list of the packages that were missing that you installed? Or, do you know how I can tell what's missing myself? I saw that the XFree86-xfs package was missing so I added that in manually, but I'm not sure what else I need. Thanks for any guidance you can provide!! ~Maureen > I think I've got it fixed now. I checked out the list of installed > packages, and there was a LOT of stuff missing.
