Public bug reported: For whatever reason, in Ubuntu OO, gedit never starts on the first attempt. It always starts on the second and additional attempts.
I did find this in .xsession-errors: ** (process:1675): DEBUG: zeitgeist-datahub.vala:174: Inserting 1 events The icon shows up in the task bar for a few seconds, fading in and out. Then it just disappears when you click on it. To reproduce, go to the dash search, type in gedit, then click on it.
