1 Okay, I'm a bit tired so Ill try to put this up in some form of
2 order/structure before responding, nag me again in the morning or
3 followup here if there are uncertain things still:
4
5 Nautilus Window List / Tree View / Notes ::
6 this would be the same bug as here,
7 http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4240
8
9 and I would guess it is libtool related, since it comes, goes and acts
10 different on different users systems, and always seem to go away once
11 nautilus is built a second time. Any help I can get in solving this one
12 is welcomed.
13
14 Terminal: This is something I have heard roumoured, but nothing "prompt"
15 I could guess its to do with schema installation though.
16
17 Gconf and /etc/gconfd. ..
18
19 I'm starting to have vauge guesses, perhaps you were in Gnome 1.4 when
20 installing Gnome 2 the first time? This could be a problem, and is
21 Something I'd have to check up, probably we need to make sure all old
22 gconf processes are killed before installing gconf 1.2.0 in the final
23 stages.
24
25 CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK means that the directory is -not- protected (masked
26 from protection) this is because of osme very bad experiences with old
27 schemas being applied and installed to new packages due to configuration
28 protection.
29
30
31 System monitor seems to be related to Gconf issues.
32
33
34 One solution that -might- fix the gconf issues is : logout of X, gnome,
35 et al, and from command line run:
36 emerge gconf
37
38 this should reinstall gconf with "correct" permissions, overwriting the
39 old installation.
40
41
42 Help/Yelp issues delayed until I'm able to think again.
