As I already said on IRC, and I'm repeating here, I don't see why gconf
would be running for your user because of gdm.

On my machine, gdm runs as root (and certainly doesn't start gconf, but
that's not something I would bet my life on). I guess you're not running
your desktop as root, so how would gdm start up a version of gconfd as
your user ?

Just remove gconf and the packages depending on it from /usr/, that's
the easiest way.

Cheers
