I've managed this command after looking the issues of 'ps axu' with and without starting gnome-session. (Usually I run just a window manager) In fact over a year I've run two copies of gnumeric: An older version for work that don't have this problem and the newest for play that gives me in printing trouble. This until a day that I started a gnome session and discovered that the printing problem was out. I was assuming that the problem is in my configuration as none of the developers seems to have the same problem. Now I am unable to continue tracking this problem up to the source, I am unable to identify what is changing at gnome-session startup and how it impacts gnumeric. Not sure if your problem is related to mine, but in case... Hope it helps Pere _______________________________________________ gnumeric-list mailing list gnumeric-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnumeric-list
