gnucash crash

[Derek Atkins]

Hi,

This sounds like there is a problem between gconf, gconf2, and orbit.
Unfortunately I don't know what to tell you.  As the error says, this
is a gtkhtml error with gconf.  Have you checked for the existence
of the gconf server and its reachability?  Have you checked your orbit
configuration?
