Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gconf

Hi,

I recently installed Ubuntu 8.04 on my laptop and noticed that many
settings do not persist across reboots. For example, adding the terminal
icon to the panel, changing compiz settings or setting up a VPN
connection.

To me this looks like a gconf problem but I don't know much about Gnome.
The funny thing is that a previously configured VPN connection in
network-manager doesn't show up in the gui anymore but the file
.gconf/system/networking/vpn_connections/myconnection/%gconf.xml still
contains the configuration.

I set up my home directory to be encrypted and mounted at login using
pam_mount, maybe this has something to do with the problem. (gconf
starting before the filesystem is mounted?)

Any help is appreciated.
