I've seen this mentioned in the past, and I believe it's always boiled down to the gnome automounter stuff. I can't offer a certain fix because I don't run gnome (just a few of the apps). But if you can find the RPM responsible, try an rpm -e on it to get rid of it. Could possibly nautilus. I don't let it install unless something else complains. If that happens, I let it install then rpm -e --nodeps the damned thing because of other things about it I don't like. Nautilus might not be the problem. Then again, since I don't have it installed, that could be why I never see these errors. -- Who are the Brain Police? _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
