complete .xsession-errors for failing session none

Description Tom London 2008-05-16 20:33:50 UTC 
Description of problem:
Installing gnome-session-2.22.1.1-1.fc9.i386 gets login/session "botch".

Screen is wrong resolution, .... etc.

Here are the first few lines of .xession-errors:
Started none
** (gnome-session:16985): DEBUG: SESSION_MANAGER=local/unix:@/tmp/.ICE-unix/16985


** (gnome-session:16985): WARNING **: dbus-daemon is already running: processes
launched by D-Bus won't have access to $SESSION_MANAGER!

** (gnome-session:16985): DEBUG: Look for: gnome-panel.desktop
** (gnome-session:16985): DEBUG: Found in:
/usr/share/applications/gnome-panel.desktop

Later complaints about not being able to connect to session manager, etc.

Complete .xsession-errors attached.

Workaround is to revert to gnome-session-2.22.1.1-1.fc9.i386.

This is a "me too". fc10 gnome is having lots of problems. 

It isn't remembering a lot of settings. Can't start appearance or session
properties I started kde at one point to try to recover, so now I have kde
processes starting in gnome (kgpg, kde's power manager applet).

There are also quite a few persistent zombie processes that were started by
gnome-session.

The actual problem is fixed now. 
The warning still happens, but it is no longer true.
