11 No, I think the app has access to X (it's just a warning, not an
12 error), but not to the gnome-session manager, because it's a user
13 session (gvim has probably been compiled with the "gnome" USE flag). To
14 disable the warning, try the"--sm-disable" option (should work with all
15 gnome apps).
