[gentoo-user] GConf Error

[Emanuele Morozzi]

Hello to everybody,

Since some day I get this error while starting Gnome:

Gnome doesn't start in a good way. I can see only the desktop, but
without any icons

Other info:

- I have tried to re-emerge everything in system and world but without
success.

- I have tried to log as root to try (I never do it).

- I have tried to look at http://www.gnome.org/projects/gconf/

- I think this is a permission problem

- KDE is working perfectly

Does anybody have some idea/suggestion/other_tries?

Thanks.

Did you remove the files in ~/.gnome*, etc? This usually fixed the issue for me.

HTH,
