Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gconf

Login takes an exceedingly long time.  When the desktop does finally
appear, a window appears with the following error message: "GConf error:
Failed to contact configuration server; the most common cause is a
missing or misconfigured D-Bus session but daemon.  See
http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information.  (Details - 1: GetIOR
failed: Timeout was reached)"

Other similar errors have been reported, but they all seem to be in
response to SSH or remote desktop logins.  This is a normal login,
although the user home area is NFS-mounted from another host via
LDAP+NFS+AutoFS.  This auto-mounted methodology works properly on all
other hosts running Ubuntu-9.10.  The problem host differs in that it is
running Ubuntu-11.04.
