It looks like the only way to catch the error is to do so when you are logging in. I think the following will work: 1) Start a second X server with "X :1" 2) export DISPLAY=:1 3) oaf-slay 4) Launch a separate terminal and say "DISPLAY=:1 bonobo-moniker-archiver" 5) run gnome-session 6) Observe the output of bonobo-moniker-archiver and send it my way. I hope that helps to identify the problem. > Christian -- ======================================================================== Bradford Hovinen Hacker http://www.cis.udel.edu/~hovinen/ Ximian Desktop team hovinen ximian com Ximian, Inc.
