Sorry for having to post another question!
Recently my Gparted has suddenly stopped working!
I haven't changed anything that I can think which would have affected it.
I'm using Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 64-bit with Gnome Version 3.22.2.
If I try to run it through my applications menu, it asks me the root password, like normal. After typing it in, it loads for a little bit, then just stops.
If I run it from terminal using:
- Code: Select all
gparted
as my user I get:
- Code: Select all
bash: gparted: command not found
If I run it as root or run it as:
- Code: Select all
gparted-pkexec
I always get:
- Code: Select all
dan@Dan:~$ su

I've tired researching the issue but its getting a bit beyond me now with all the XOrg stuff! Slowly trying to learn!
Some people have said it can be a network issue and recommended disconnecting from it to see if it works. However, disconnecting from any network (WIFI or LAN) still doesn't make it work. I've tried pulling the cable out, the dongle (for WIFI), and choosing disconnect.
Some people have said I need to not be running in VNC, RDP, SSH or anything like that. But I'm not, I'm physically on the computer.
One post I found for Ubuntu (Which is based on Debian so most things should work...

- Code: Select all
dan@Dan:~$ xhost +localhost
localhost being added to access control list
dan@Dan:~$ xhost +
access control disabled, clients can connect from any host
But it still doesn't work.

I'm not quite sure what information I need to provide!
So... have the journal?

Really sorry I can't provide more but this is all new too me! Fingers crossed, I'll soon be back answering other peoples questions!

Thanks
