Hello, I also experience this problem. I can always reproduce it this way:
1. Reboot or power on computer and start Debian. 2. Log into gnome session for the first time. Drive mount applets works ok. 3. Logout. 4. Log into gnome session again. Drive mount applet does not show, and if I try to add a new one to my panel, it does not show either although it is added (if I repeat 1) and 2), then the original and added instances appear). -- Now, I have found that while in step 3), switching to console and logging in as root, a "ps -ef" commands shows me that some daemon processes belonging to my user ("daniel", already logged out) still remain active: daniel 19367 1 0 20:51 ? 00:00:00 /usr/lib/bonobo-activation/bonobo-activation-server --ac-activate --ior-output-fd=16 daniel 19430 1 0 20:51 ? 00:00:00 /usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconfd-2 14 Specifically, the problem comes with the bonobo-activation-server daemon. If I terminate that process (from my root console), switch to gdm and log in with my user again, the drive mount applet behaves properly (as in 2) ). Hope this helps, Daniel R. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
