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. - David ProblemType: Bug Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue Oct 7 11:30:08 2008 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 8.04 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: gconf2 2.22.0-0ubuntu3 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcEnviron: SHELL=/bin/zsh LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games SourcePackage: gconf Uname: Linux 2.6.24-19-generic x86_64 ** Affects: gconf (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug -- Various settings not saved across reboots https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/279547 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gconf in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
