I don't think putting hacks that clean up the dirt in gnome-session or the session startup files is the right fix... 1) gconf should not fall over if stale locks or sockets are left behind 2) gconf should clean up its own mess I've already logged 6425609 ORBit2 leaves stale sockets in /var/tmp Is there one for gconf?
