start and exit GNOME problems

[Neil Best <nbest oceanspar com>]

Hey, guys.  I found your exchange in the archives.  I experienced
similar problems; gnome is evry slow to start but seems fine after that
. . . except for one thing.  My "Log Out" button stopped working when
logged in as root but is fine for my working account.  I have been
messing with my kernel and modules a bit, but nothing that would affect
gnome or X as far as I know.  I'm running the version of gnome that came
with RH6.0.  (How do I get the version number from the system?)

Any ideas?

Neil

How old is your GNOME?
