startx
doesn't work at all with the chroot; not entirely sure why. You can use xinit
if you want to manually set up your X11 session. startxfce4
should be called without sudo
inside the chroot, or with sudo
outside (since it's a helper script that calls enter-chroot
).
If the above doesn't resolve anything: what do you mean by "restored", and what command did you use to set up your chroot?

myself back at the chromeos logging screen

Ah after i installed Chrubuntu and got frustrated with it I decided to wipe
my Chromebook (Samsung series 3 arm) via an Google restore disk for my
machine.
and what command did you use to set up your chroot?
I used the crouton script,on the homepage which i believe to be
http://goo.gl/fd3zc
(unless its changed in the last 24hours!)
Thanks
Great project by the way!

The link doesn't change. Also, I meant what did you type into crosh to set up the chroot. Finally, what does it say under about:version?
from crouton.
i just downloaded the crouton script at http://goo.gl/fd3zc then i ran it, then i typed sudo startxfte4
I dont see anywhere that says about version, is this once x has started?
I dont know where to look for version, just grepped the crouton scriipt and couldnt see version threre
from crouton.
- How did you run the crouton script? You typed in
sudo sh -e crouton ....something
. What was that "something"? - Open a new tab in Chromium OS, type in
about:version
and hit enter. Record what the first line says.

sudo sh -e Downloads/crouton ..... i think

from crouton.
i ran
sudo sh -e ~/Downloads/crouton -t xfce
from crouton.
Run: delete-chroot precise
to delete your chroot, then try sudo sh -e ~/Downloads/crouton -t xfce 2>&1 | tee ~/Downloads/crouton.log
and if after that completes sudo startxfce4
doesn't work, paste the contents of the crouton.log file here.
from crouton.
ive got a theory on what might be happening,,,,, chromeos screen dims during install and i usually have to log in again when i have finished the install , i think that chromeos removes the environment when im not logged in, e.g. most times when im not logged in I cant see my OWN downloads directory in dev shell.
from crouton.
The log got cut off. Could you stick it on pastebin and link it here?
Crouton doesn't actually operate out of your user directory unless you force it to, so that's probably not the case.

Looks fine to me. What does running sudo startxfce4
from crosh spit out?
from crouton.
Nothing! It just flashes up, starting xserver then the screen goes black
for about 20 second s and then I'm back at the chromeos login screen

Are you running this from a guest session, or is there something else interesting about your accounts?
from crouton.
Running from chronos account, i guess it's not acrouton problem, and
something weird about my machine, strange thing is, this is after a restore
using my google recovery disk!

I mean the Google account(s) that you're logged into (or if you're in a guest session).

Er, not that i know of, how could my google account affect this?

Thanks for digging into it. Feel free to comment if you figure things out, or re-open if you dig some more and suspect it is related to crouton after all.
from crouton.
As discovered in #18, if you've been using VT2 to launch the chroot, it won't work. Use crosh (Ctrl+Alt+T) instead.
from crouton.
im sorry! i didnt even know that you could launch shell with ctrl+t!
from crouton.
Not a problem! I've added it to the instructions now. I'm just glad it wasn't something device-dependent.
