Mate vs Gnome

[giobaxx]

Hello to Everyone

I need to understand some problem that we are having in some Ubuntu 18.04 that froze too often. I’m still not sure if the problem is related to NoMachine….but I don’t know where to look for.

In this Ubuntu I have installed the latest version of NoMachine while I’m using an old version from my Windows from which I’m testing the connection.

On this Ubuntu desktop the user installed mate as Windows manager. Could you tell me if this can generate a problem over the remote session?

This because other than slow when I log in to my gnome session, trying to open a terminal I have the following error

• gnome-terminal-server.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=8/n/a
• gnome-terminal-server.service: Failed with result ‘exit-code’.
• Failed to start GNOME Terminal Server.

Did you have any advice?

Thanks G.

Hello giobaxx,

What exactly do you mean by Ubuntu freezing too often? Does it mean that NoMachine session becomes unresponsive or that Ubuntu OS hangs and a reboot of the system is necessary? If it’s the latter, you should check for possible clues in system logs, on Ubuntu those would be '/var/log/syslog‘, '/var/log/kern.log' and '/var/log/auth.log'. If it’s a problem with the NoMachine session, please provide us client and server-side logs gathered according to:
https://www.nomachine.com/DT07M00098#7
https://www.nomachine.com/DT10O00163#1.1
and send them to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com, referencing the topic in the email subject.

As for the errors you see inside the terminal, they match the problem described here:

This doesn’t appear to be related in any way to NoMachine.
