on both ppc and intel, OS 10.5.6, X11 2.3.2-1 (reinstalled after the  
update), latest fink, all updates applied, using Gnome.

xinitrc contents are
. /sw/bin/init.sh
export PATH=$PATH:/sw/bin:/sw/sbin
autocutsel &
metacity &
exec gnome-session

Following the last update, the following message is received when  
starting X11:

"Could not connect to session bus: launchd's env var  
DBUS_LAUNCHD_SESSION_BUS_SOCKET does not exist"

This is followed by "Could not acquire name on session bus"

On the PPC machine, Metacity then quits with
EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS)
KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE AT
0X0000000000000 (all zeros)

On the intel machine, I don't get the metacity quit message.

If I disable .xinitrc, X11 starts and I can start apps from xterm  
(e.g., Gramps, Sol, Inkscape).

I tried mv'ing all the .gnome related files in my home directory, but  
got the same results.

Suggestions appreciated.


Stan
