    I would delete the file in the /tmp dir that it speaks of. Sounds like a lockfile that went stale.

    Thats fine. Its a tmp file no real harm can be done. I would logout afterwords or reboot. Whichever you feel like, assuming it doesnt work. Its a lockfile, kill that file and the app will work again.

    Code:
    su -c "rm -rf /tmp/gconfd-cheetahman2006/*.*"
    My crime is that of curiosity. My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like. My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive.
