Okay, so it seems the lock-up problem is not exactly reproducible every time and not related to /FrontEnd/X11/OnTheSpot setting. After immediately logging into GNOME and test with nautilus, I have experienced lock-up problem for the Ctrl-L window and rename (F2, or using right-click menu) for both /FrontEnd/X11/OnTheSpot settings. So /FrontEnd/X11/OnTheSpot is likely irrelevant, and my comment above is incorrect. Also the problem doesn't occur for me every time, I had to try several times. Ming 2007.08.12
