Sometimes you can read the message saying that you have a locking problem ( and thus read the path to the lock ) but sometimes you see nothing ( just some windows with dash instead of text ... ). A bad combinaisaison is when you log in and have the gnome preference daemon bug ( see #6138 ), then you decide to stop everything before it mess up your session config ( as it asks to remove some applets ... ) by hitting CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE. You reboot the computer to resolve the problem ( argh )and when you try to log in again ... gconf locking problem ( so you need to remove manually the lock ) and then you can log in ( so 3 attempts and 1 reboot just to log in in Gnome ! ). This is really painfull when you have several computers to administer under gnome. the locking proble can be solve by erasing by hand the lock at each gnome start ( i put this in /etc/gnome/gnomerc ), but this is just a hack. Gnome is really too fragile in an NFS environment ...
