27 that helped a bit .... the saved_state file now peaks at around 500 MB
28 ... but the shell(?) crashes again.

30 I see lots of:

35
36 in "dmesg".
37
38 As mentioned, gconf has been rebuilt already.

40 I also didn't change anything in terms of (un)masking stuff when I
41 re-emerged gnome today.
