Try starting gnome-name-service first, that will keep them happy. This is what I do when I'm not running my X session with gnome-session, and I want to start a Gnome app. > Does anybody know what's wrong and how can I fix it ? What you might want to try is deleting or renaming the .gnome dir in your $HOME. I've found that the old configs can cause problems when you upgrade Gnome. The gnome-name-service *should* be started by gnome-session, so if you're running your X session using gnome-session then it's probably your old configs causing the problems... Otherwise you can always start gnome-name-service by hand when you need it. -- Matthew Gregan [EMAIL PROTECTED]
