We are running gedit-2.8.1-4 on RedHat WS rel 4 update 5.  We have

it from the command line, he gets the following warnings:

** (gedit:2249): WARNING **: URI NOT LOADED

He will get 3 of these messages if gedit is run without a filename, 
and 4 if a filename is specified.  Either way, he will get the 
message "The application "gedit" has quit unexpectedly."  The user 
cannot run gedit on any of our Linux workstations, but all other 
users do not have a problem, so I'm guessing it must be something in 
his home directory.  I have tried to rename the directories .gconf 
.gconfd and .gnome but none have made a difference.

Are there any other files created by gedit for the user that I can 
clear?  My next step may be to create a new home directory entirely, 
but I'd rather not do that if necessary.

On my ubuntu box the hidden directories are ~/.gnome2/gedit/ . . .

I know not where the "2" comes from or what it means.

What about the user's $PATH ? Is there another gedit tool in it?
