Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gconf
I am connecting from a Jaunty computer to another computer running Jaunty, using ssh X11 forwarding. When I try to open any application such as gedit, I get the following error over and over again: GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details - 1: Failed to get connection to session: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus- QS6NzEDBEh: Connection refused) The application does not open.
