Some other weird thing is wrong with my gconf!!!


Try shutting down gconfd (gconftool-2 --shutdown) and running the
gconf-sanity-check-1 or gconf-sanity-check-2 applications - these will tell
you about common problems. Also, be sure you have the latest GConf version.


If you can't figure out what's going on, mail [email protected] with the
following information:
      Exact error messages from any applications.
      Exact version of GConf 1 and GConf 2 that you have installed.
      Output of ps jaxwww | grep gconf.
      Output of gconf-sanity-check-1 or gconf-sanity-check-2 if any.
      What operating system are you using, and what version of it.
      What appears in the user.* syslog (see above for how to turn on
      user.* syslog).


Before you mail, please read this whole web page.

After resetting the permissions of /tmp to 777 and and then resetting the
permissions on:
drwx------  3 root    root   4096 Jan 18 12:22 gconfd-root
drwx------  2 root root 4096 Jan 18 12:38 lock
drwx------  2 root    root   4096 Jan 18 12:52 orbit-root

Everything worked again.
I'm not sure if this was needed or not:
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 14 Jan 18 11:51 /etc/orbitrc
[root@omnibus]# cat /etc/orbitrc
ORBIIOPIPv4=1
But I left it that way.
