I had a similar problem using SuSE 9.0 a while back - everything had been 
going fine, and then one day gnucash wouldn't start.  Turned out to be the 
often-mentioned gconfd-1 problem.  

I had payable/receivable aging reports which opened on startup - all was 
fine, then gconfd stopped working and "broke" gnucash.

IIRC it was ultimately a problem with my nfslockd not starting properly...

Do you run gnome as your default desktop?  If so, I think you should get 
messages from gconfd about it not working properly.... can't be sure as am 
a mostly KDE man...

Hope that is of some help
