(cache and session seem most likely!) As long as you don't run galeon at the same time on both machines, things will be fine. The alternative is to symlink ~/.galeon to a different the directory on the local machines (e.g. I have ~/.galeon symlinked to /space/crispin/home/dot_galeon). The only problem with the symlink method is that bookmarks aren't shared, but that has never really bothered me.
