Thanks for the idea. The issue with me seems to be the fact that the bonobo-activation-server is hosed. I've tried reinstalling everything GDM and bonobo related that I could find to no effect. Nothing meaningful was logged (at least at the default log level for bonobo and I didn't see where I could turn up the logging. Strace didn't give me much to work with that I could understand anyway).
Finally I just gave up and repaved the system. That's a pretty disappointing thing to have to do but I'd already spend enough time scouring the web and looking on the ubuntu bug tracker. Luckily my /home is on a separate drive and partition so it was fairly trivial to do the rebuild. p.s. I am sorry to see these lists so quiet, we need to be a resource for each other. Thanks again, I appreciate your help! John On Tue, Jul 6, 2010 at 5:50 PM, dbclinton <dbc...@gmail.com> wrote: > Maybe you could try killing bonobo.
