There is a dedicated wiki entry on backing up [1]. The Configuration Locations page is meant as 
an overview for other pages to refer to.

As for the list of directories:
- .gconf/apps/gnucash is obsolete, unless you are still running GnuCash 2.4.x
- .gnucash is only used by gnucash 2.6.x and older.
- if you are using gnucash 2.6.x or more recent you are currently not backing up your user 
preferences (the ones found under Edit->Preferences). See the backup wiki for more details.

Regards,

Geert
