Hi Kent,

I had a similar problem once, with every program that I launched
defaulting to ~/.gnome-desktop. I tracked down the problem to a
gnome-panel setting (all these programs had been launched from the gnome
panel, which had messed up it's CDW, somehow).

Have a look in your ~/.gnome directory and see if you can find any
configuration files for the panel which have /usr/bin/ in them, this
might be your problem. You could probably start by doing an rgrep for
/usr/bin/ in ~/.gnome and see what you come up with (I have no idea what
file I changed, so I can't tell you exactly where to look).

This solved my problem, may solve yours too.

HTH
