in the blfs-book the gnome-apps are configured with
--sysconfdir=/etc/gnome/2.14.3
and metacity is configured with
--sysconfdir=/etc

Well nevertheless I did the above suggestions but nothing changed. I
still have:
* empty panel on startup
* mouse mouvements too fast + too much accelleration
* keyboard repeat rate = 0
* added applets to the panel lost after restarting X
* no application icons in menus
* gconf-editor shows only entries for the apps which have been started
* clicking on an gconf-editor entry says: no schema associated with this
key.

I sometimes see errors like
starting gnome-session gives:
> ***MEMORY-WARNING***: gnome-session[9702]: GSlice: g_thread_init()
> must be called before all other GLib functions; memory corruption due
> to late invocation of g_thread_init() has been detected; this program

any suggestions?
