First of all - What version of ubuntu are you using(from the kernel version you are using I assume its intrepid)? - Is this a normal install or have you installed seperate gnome packages? - Is your gnome session working correctly? - Do you execute this on a server via ssh where there are no gnome libs available?
I cannot reproduce this problem locally on my machine(intrepid amd64). -- gedit error when using it as a root https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/352734 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gedit in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
