This bug may be coming in a few incarnations but it seems to be a bug
with the DBUS system on Jaunty
The original error reported doesn't go away with the latest updates and
is actually being reported on quite a bit of other GNOME programs when
trying to display back to the Jaunty Host.
I have tested this with: gedit, gvim, gnome-terminal, gconf-editor, etc.
All the files in the .dbus/session-bus are owned by me, but I still get
the errors and gnome-terminal completely fails to startup.
Same issue affects KDE programs such as kate.
This issue does not exist when the display host is Intrepid Ibex.
