Public bug reported:
it is a general problem and has reported here in several , special bugs,
but I think, the problem occurs to all this situations when you using
some gnome apps, firefox, openoffice:
as root
over ssh with x-forwarding
over vnc
with xnest
or in my situation to use LINUX as a multi-user-system, also work on the same
machine with several users, the main user has not a problem, but all other get
this error:
GConf error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible
causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you
have stale NFS locks due to a system crash
So, a lot of this errors are find at Google, and I think, it was a
problem with gconf and dbus (perhaps). This error is during like the
update from hardy to intrepid and now Jaunty. And it is a bad bug,
really, you make Linux to a single-user-system !
I tried a lot of workarounds, but nothing works good.
So, I can't remove gconf, to much programs will then remove( over 150) but also
with gconf no firefox and no openoffice will work.
a really bad situation !
best regards Juergen
