I'm having the same error message. I just installed 10.04 on my netbook. I sort of understand what I need to do to fix this, but could someone tell me EXACTLY what it is I need to do to change the /tmp file? I have no idea how to even access it. I think that the answer in post #16 would solve my problem, but I don't know how to do that.
If this helps, I am not able to boot Ubuntu at all; it doesn't make it past the login screen. I have it and its swap space installed in it own partitions separate from my Windows 7 starter partition. This is the first time I've ever used a Linux product but I really want to get it to work. I'm not familiar with a lot of this stuff, so if someone could let me know what I need to do to fix this, I would really appreciate it. -- "gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256" on log in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/577545 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gconf in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
