Root has no problem & another user called frida is also working fine. For the user bg, when the problem occurs, gnome-session, gnome-settings-daemon & pam- panel-icon are running as bg. BUT mapping-daemon is NOT running. 1. You have to know that this problem is occuring on a headless pc (let's call it "pc1"). I connect to it with VNC from a notebook. Both run FC3 & are updated with latest packages. 2. On pc1 I have 2 users created: bg & frida 3. On pc1, if i launch it with /etc/sysconfig/vncservers containing VNCSERVERS="2:bg" or VNCSERVERS="2:bg 3:root" then the problem occurs. If i do the same with /etc/sysconfig/vncservers containing VNCSERVERS="2:bg 3:frida" then I don't have the problem anymore ! I have to say, I am lost. Any idea ? Bertrand NB: on pc1 ~/.vnc/xstartup for root,bg & frida users are all the same: #!/bin/sh # Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop: unset SESSION_MANAGER exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc [ -x /etc/vnc/xstartup ] && exec /etc/vnc/xstartup [ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources xsetroot -solid grey vncconfig -iconic & xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & gnome &
