Has anybody tested this with Ubuntu Maverick (11.04)? I tested couple weeks ago and there weren't those "Unable to contact dconf service" errors, but something else. I have to test and analyze it again when I have time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/645448 Title: preferences in empathy doesn't get saved when home directory is on nfs -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 645448] Re: preferences in empathy doesn't get saved when home directory is on nfs
I'm seeing this as well, renders Empathy quite useless for me :-( Are there no workarounds possible?

[Bug 645448] Re: preferences in empathy doesn't get saved when home directory is on nfs
Hi, I confirm this bug too. With NFSv3 or NFSv4 preferences don't get saved properly in Empathy or in Evince (or in any program using dconf instead of gconf?). When I run Evince I'll get this error message (/home -directory is mounted over nfs): ** (evince:19067): CRITICAL **: Unable to contact dconf service ...and when I try to open file browser dialog in Evince the program freezes. BTW: There is no this problem when I mount /home over network with GlusterFS or MooseFS. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/645448 Title: preferences in empathy doesn't get saved when home directory is on nfs -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1646526 seems to suggest that this is Inotify-related. That would mean that this is another manifestation of the problem described in Bug #383118 (which is, in it's own, a bit misguided as it's probably not Gamin, but the kernel that is at fault, but I'm not sure). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/645448 Title: preferences in empathy doesn't get saved when home directory is on nfs -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 645448] Re: preferences in empathy doesn't get saved when home directory is on nfs
As I understand, all programs which use dconf (new configuration API) instead of gconf (the old one) are affected. For now I had found that Empathy and Evince use dconf. Evince crashes every time I try to launch it. But there were some successful launches when it told me that it could not connect to dconf service. -- preferences in empathy doesn't get saved when home directory is on nfs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/645448 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Have the same problem. I have noticed that dconf creates a tcp connection to my NFSv4 server.
