multiple issues with F13

$ uname -a
Linux goldfish.ancientpond.com 2.6.33.8-149.fc13.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Aug 17 22:53:15 UTC 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

brand new install, numerous warnings/errors/criticals, such as:

  • [nm-manager.c:[1328] user_proxy_init(): could not init user settings proxy: (3) Could not get owner of name 'org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerUserSettings': no such name


  • gnome-keyring-daemon[8460]: couldn't set environment variable in session: The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files


  • The above two seem related, this other one here, I'll bet, is the reason flashplayer (32bit) doesn't play any sound (64 bit system), although the visuals are fine.

  • abrt[8816]: saved core dump of pid 8806 (/usr/lib64/nspluginwrapper/npviewer.bin) to /var/spool/abrt/ccpp-1283209612-8806.new/coredump (1200128 bytes)


  • The real question I have for this crew is "Why, when I google the error messages, all that seems to come up are Ubuntu forum entries?"

    Of course pointers to my particular solutions are good, too. :)
