The problem is that gconfd doesn't exit when you log out, so when you
log in again you're still using the old one, not a new one.  And if
gconfd from an older version of Gnome is running with 2.8.0 well, it's
just not good!

As an alternative to rebooting you could log in as root, find the
processes still running as your username; maybe something like:

    ps -aef | grep psmith

(although of course use your account not psmith :)), then kill
anything suspicious looking.


Or you can just reboot :).
