I guess the starting point would be: Where goes the output (and error) of whatever script starts the gnome session? and where in the config files does it say that metacity should start?

I believe it happened during an upgrade or update of either gnome/gtk or libexpat. I know that the execution of metacity and such settings are set in the .gnome* files. So as a last resort without any help I just figured; why not just delete the .gnome* directories with `rm -rf .gnome2 .gnome .gnome2_private` and then restart X. I was shocked to have seen it work afterwards. I know for a fact that certain programs regenerate their config dirs if they don't exist and I believe that that is what happened. -----Original Message----- From: Moshe Kamensky [mailto:moshe.kamensky@googlemail.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 12, 2007 8:20 AM To: gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org Subject: [gentoo-user] Re: metacity Woes Hi, I don't have a solution, just to mention that I have the same problem (with gnome-2.18.2-r1).
