When I tried starting compiz in GNOME, I was having window decoration problems at one point for some reason. GNOME eventually crashed, and upon reboot, I couldn’t log in to GNOME properly. First, I’d see a message that says the GNOME settings daemon didn’t start properly, error code 1. The session start sequence would be stuck on the openSUSE panel thing. I’d press ctrl+alt+backspace twice, and log into GNOME again, which would take me a to a desktop where the only thing that could be clicked on is a window for Pidgin. Luckily, KDE 4.1 beta 2 still works fine.
Is there any way to fix it so I can log back into GNOME?
BTW: For some odd reason, many of the programs I had open during the crash, such as Firefox and Amarok, will not work inside KDE 4.1 beta 2. Is that because of KDE or because of the crash?
