gconftool-2 --spawn

RT: #26349: Nancy Chevalier

Problem: Ubuntu gives gnome config file errors upon starting desktop, and desktop never sucessfully starts

first, run df in terminal and make sure disk isnt full

else, cont:

howto: IF gconfd isnt running (i.e. ps aux | grep gconfd returns no gconfd processes)

then mv ~/.gconfd/saved_state ~/.gconfd/saved_state.bak[date] (put today's date in place of [date])

this will reset the saved gconfd state that is causing the gconf server issue, and should resolve the startup problem
