Gnome terminal problems

[Empty_One <emptyone wi rr com>]

I seem to have borken gnome terminal.  I'ts been working fine ever since
I installed Debian, but these past few days, I've been playing around
with different wm's, and decided to go back to gnome.  Now, whenever I
sart gnome-terminal, I recieve this message:

An error occurred while loading or saving configuration information for
gnome-terminal. Some of your configuration settings may not work
properly.

Clicking details gives me this:

Configuration server couldn't be contacted:
 CORBA error: IDL:omg.org/CORBA/BAD_OPERATION:1.0
Configuration server couldn't be contacted:
 CORBA error: IDL:omg.org/CORBA/BAD_OPERATION:1.0
Configuration server couldn't be contacted:
 CORBA error: IDL:omg.org/CORBA/BAD_OPERATION:1.0

Can someone out there point me in the proper direction to fix this?

I tried everything I could think of, including deleting all my .gnome*
and .gconf* directories, but that didn't seem to help.
