You have been subscribed to a public bug: After I do an "su root" and while root attempt to edit any text file, I get multiple error messages of the following sort:
GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://www.gnome.org/projects/gconf/ for information. (Details - 1: Failed to get connection to session: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.) This message repeats more than ten times at the beginning of the edit. The editor does not seem affected in any way; it still comes up with the file, and all the functions I've used workl I am operating the latest Intrepid release (Ubuntu 8.10 - the Intrepid Ibex) on an HP Pavillion dv7 model laptop. ** Affects: gconf (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete -- gedit generates multiple GConf errors in root https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/288941 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gconf in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
