i have the latest versions of both installed, but use fvwm2-devel as my
window manager. often the first gnome app to start in my X session is
galeon. as soon as galeon fires up, so does gconfd-1.
monkey@smacky:~% killall galeon-bin; killall gconfd-{1,2}; galeon&
monkey@smacky:~% ps auxw|grep gconf
monkey 22989 0.0 0.6 3900 2996 p5 SN 9:08PM 0:00.06 /usr/X11R6/bin/gconfd-1 8
so far, i've just added:
gnome-control-center &
sleep 5 && killall gnome-control-center &
to my .xinitrc.
there's got to be a better way ::)
even though gconfd-2 takes precedence, i can't just wipe gconf off of my
system... but if i:
rm /usr/X11R6/bin/gconfd-1
ln /usr/X11R6/libexec/gconfd-2 /usr/X11R6/bin/gconfd-1
then everything seems happy.
i mean, a wrapper would be really easy to construct for gconfd-1... but
i still assume i'm just missing the point here and going way far out of
my way.
what should i do to make sure that gconfd-2 starts up, and not gconfd-1?
