This may or may not be related to some of the issues I've had lately with gconf (gnucash for example), but I noticed the following entries regarding gconf in /var/log/messages: Sep 6 13:55:06 salamander gconfd (trey-14373): starting (version 2.6.1), pid 14373 user 'trey' Sep 6 13:55:06 salamander gconfd (trey-14373): Failed to get lock for daemon, exiting: Failed to lock '/tmp/gconfd-trey/lock/ior': probably another process has the lock, or your operating system has NFS file locking misconfigured (Resource temporarily unavailable) Sep 6 13:55:06 salamander gconfd (trey-14375): starting (version 2.6.1), pid 14375 user 'trey' Sep 6 13:55:06 salamander gconfd (trey-14375): Failed to get lock for daemon, exiting: Failed to lock '/tmp/gconfd-trey/lock/ior': probably another process has the lock, or your operating system has NFS file locking misconfigured (Resource temporarily unavailable) Is this a problem? If so, what can I do to rectify? I don't know much about the NFS protocol, but I'm researching. I do have the nfs-utils package installed. The errors I'd mentioned previously around gnucash and starting the tutorial are: trey@salamander:~> gnucash gtkhtml-ERROR **: gconf error: Failed to contact configuration server (a likely cause of this is that you have an existing configuration server (gconfd) running, but it isn't reachable from here- if you're logged in from two machines at once, you may need to enable TCP networking for ORBit) aborting... Aborted Thanks for the feedback. -Trey
