Thanx to both for your message, but ... :-( ...unfortunately this does not help
"about:" brings me some netscape default message but also the error window

It's true, I upgraded to new helixcode-gnome from their site, since in the
mandrake 7.1/cooker setting I have no icons on the right side & could not
change them.

Anyway, I think it is a problem related to some gnomelib setting. There is 
a boot message in /var/log/messages:

gnome-name-server[744]: name server starting
gnome-name-server[745]: name server was running on display, exiting

Any idea how to fix that?

Best,

Daniel.
