description:
I've got this problem severals times, sometimes it disappears magically,
sometimes i have to delete all my gnome settings ( ~/.gconf, ~/.gconfd,
~/.gnome ).
Situation :
- current cooker ( 2.4.22-10mdk, GConf-1.0.9-11mdk, GConf2-2.4.0.1-1mdk,
nfs-utils-clients-1.0.5-1mdk, kdebase-3.1.92-2mdk, metacity-2.6.1-1mdk )
- home on a NFS share ( vers=3, tcp, rsize=8192, wsize=8192, nosuid,
soft, intr, timeo=600 )
- NFS server = mdk 9.1 + soft RAID1 ( ext3 partition )
One more time again, I'm facing this "Gnome n'a pu d�marrer le d�mon de
pr�f�rence. Pour l'instant il sera d�sactiv� et vous n'aurez pas acc�s
aux th�mes, sons ... ) -> Gnome was unable to launch gnome preferences
daemon.
So i don't have theme ( ugly default one for style, color, theme,
nautilus icons ), can't launch some applets ( windows list/systray,
desktop switcher ) because of an OAFIID cryptic error ...
And i have nothing interesting in ~/.xsession-errors
This is not a locking problem on my nfs partition as I don't have the
message saying that gconfd had problem locking some files.
Nothing intersting too in /var/log/messages
It's incredible how easily I can break gnome ( nfs bugs -> gconfd
locking problem whereas kde works like a charm, ???? -> gnome
preferences daemon not starting ).
The only way to solve this is ... to reboot !
