That's dthello. It's a know bug on 64 bit Archlinux and no one has found the cause or the solution.

Not sure if anybody else is getting this. 64-bit user here. Upon startup, it seems to run fine, but a window is up on start saying The desktop messaging system could not be started. It says some more, such as edit hostname and I tried it, the command Hostname prints the hostname I changed it to in /etc/hosts and I changed it for this session too with hostnamectl. Around this error are various boxes, all errors, each saying "Could not connect to ToolTalk TT_ERR_INTERNALInternal error (bug)". Googling seems to print a bunch of results for Solaris and HP-UX.

Sorry, its not something I've been working on because I only run CDE on a 32bit machine. When I tried to install this package in a 64 bit VM I got an error message when the desktop started up stating that the message passing daemon couldn't be started. I don't know if the correct modules built succesfully or not and I don't have time to investigate further at the moment.

Is there any word on 64-bit support? Please update wiki page with details https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Common_Desktop_Environment

I've adopted this package and uploaded an updated PKBUILD based on the previous work done. It works for me on x86 systems (not tested thoroughly on x86_64 yet). One important point - you have to edit /etc/conf.d/rpcbind to add "-i" to the list of startup options to run it in insecure mode. NB - I have no idea how many holes this will open up in your machine's security - you run it at your own risk.

Sorry, i've changed my notebook to 64bit version. I have no other way to test this, so i'm disowning. Wasn't able to get it running anyway...

@BlindPenguin Check if you have installed xterm, also configured the hostname on the machine. You may also need a dtsession in the directory /usr/dt/bin, look in "$srcdir/cde-$pkgver/programs/dtsession/" To run /usr/dt/bin/Xsession and CDE is needed all of this .
