Partial workaround: renice gconfd-2 to the minimum priority. That way your cpu will still be in constant use, but it'll let other processes have it when they want it.
Easiest way is to run top, find which line gconfd-2 is on, hit "r" for "renice", type in the PID from the PID column, then enter the new priority of 19, which is the lowest (or some arbitrarily high number, so you don't need to remember it's 19). -- ubuntu-bug "GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/441579 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
