Greetings,
'Gnome' is not starting up anymore, and I'm not able to run
gnome applications:
It opens a connection on the localhost to port 16001,
and waits, but doesn't get anything.. and seems to just be hanging.
What is this port? I don't know how the gnome system works, so any
pointers (to documentation or whatever) would be useful.
Running 'strace' on a gnome application gives
