Paul, I had a very similar error message. As suggested by Henriël Veldtmann in bug #146946, installing the dbus-X11 package _in addition to_ the dbus package fixed the error. It seems like there's a missing dependency with one of the Gnome packages (gnome-session, from what I can tell, is the best choice).
Try installing dbus-X11 and see if that fixes it. -- [gutsy] gconfd starts with session, but apps say that gconfd can't be contacted and user settings are not loaded https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/139368 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gconf2 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
