(2002-01-24) Michael G. Ross sed : | As far as I can tell, I do not have gconfd running, and I am not logged | in from multiple machines - I am just running X locally.

On the machine with the problem, my home directory is on | an automounted NFS drive that has its root permissions squashed, so if | something needs to run as root and write files to my home directory that | could be the cause of the problem. I also tried to run nautilus without | any of the rest of Gnome running (launching from fvwm) and got the same | result.
I had the same problem with galeon and evolution, which use gconf. I think it's because it tries to use some lock on files that the Network File System doesn't support. My ugly solution was to symlink the .gconf* directories to a directory on the local drive. -- VALLIET Emmanuel Webmotion Inc.
