I just upgraded to Jauunty alpha6 from intrepid. The bug is new. gnome-terminal opens fine from my user account. However gksudo gnome-terminal sudo gnome-terminal
end with just the line: Failed to contact the GConf daemon; exiting. (there was not even a linefeed at the end) Tried the same with gedit, it came up. Tried with tomboy (works normally from my account), it didn't come up, and produced a backtrace, attached. This box is not an nfs client, so I suppose nfs locks are not to be looked for. As for orbit, I could not find any docs on how to enable networking for it. dbus is on.
