I added the line as proposed in #16, but it hasn't made any difference. By the way, is gconf.xml.defaults supposed to be a folder?

Going back to Sebastien Bacher's comment in #3. I have run the live CD on 2 other PCs (currently with Myth 9.10 installed) & they didn't exhibit any issues. Perhaps it needs to be installed before they show up. 2 of my sons have 10.04 installed & don't have any problems.

So these cases seem to support Sebastien's comment that there is something different/unusual about our configurations.

But as a mostly end-user, I am at a loss to know how to proceed to check anything.

I also seem to be a lone owner of another problem (bug #580755) that I can't boot other than via fail-safe. In a "normal" boot, my keyboard & mouse are disable after the first (few?) keystroke/s or mouse movement. Again, it would seem that there is something different/specific about my configuration.

I made a CD of 10.04.1, but I can't load it for the same reason.

On earlier live CD's, F4 enabled one to change to fail-safe mode, buts F4 on 10.04.1 does not provide fail-safe.

Can anyone suggest what I could check about my configuration, as a minimum for the gconf-sanity-check problem, but if it helps with the lock-up problem, that would be great.

Regards, Garry.
