I have the same problem after upgrade from Intrepid to Jaunty. I don't know of this is information is useful, but i experience this issue problem trying to start gnome-terminal from /etc/gdm/PostSession/Default. This script is run when the user logs out of the system. In Intrepid, a terminal pops out in front of the user, but it does nothing in Jaunty. The terminal does not start, and I get this very same error.
What I don't understand is that the very same command works perfectly when started from /etc/gdm/PostLogin/Default. This script is run right after user logon. And when i try to run it between logon and logoff, manually from terminal, it also works. I tried the suggested workaround which seems to solve the problem when executed from /etc/gdm/PostSession/Default -- Cannot start gnome-terminal because of gconf error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/328575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
