Robert, below is a fairly standard process, not just for Fedora but
any distro, for debugging a problem on an application:
1) Define what you mean by "nothing happens", does any thing appear at all?
Nothing visibly happens.
2) Run it from the command prompt to see if there's a segfault or
some
other output indicating why
I am going to have to dig a bit to figure out what Xfce is running. I
SHOULD be able to figure this one out myself.
3) Check bugzilla to see if anyone else has reported the problem [1]
3) If it crashes run it from gdb and gather a backtrace [2]
What is gbd and how do I run it from there. Or rather, point me to
instructions about this, please.
4) Update the bug with relevant information if it exists or report a
bug [3] attaching the above information if not.
I knew once I found what was happening, I would more than likely be
filing a bug report. But should really have realized to check there first.
thanks
