Gnome Crash?

In a normal reboot operation,
after logined to X desktop, some error messages popped up:
They are all about GNOME, such as gnome-palel, gnome-session, and Nautillis

Those message say something about cannot find /tmp/gconffd-root/lock

What I did is delete all files in /tmp directory
then reboot the machine.
Login, wooo, all error are gone...
However, desktop's configuration are resetted to default.

Does anybody know why this happen??

Another problem:
RealPlayer does not work.
The following is the error message:

[root@FC3 update]# rpm -ivh RealPlayer-10.0.3.748-20050223.i586.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
1:RealPlayer ########################################### [100%]
[root@FC3 update]# realplay
/usr/local/RealPlayer/realplay.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

How to solve it????
Thank you.

Kernel: 2.6.10-1.766_FC3

Hmm...Im having trouble understanding exactly what the problem is.
Secondly, thats awesome. I didn't think people were playing that game anymore.

Notice from moonwitch:

If you don't understand the problem, then don't reply, this is a useless reply, since you think the issue is about a game. The issue put forth here is fairly simple, the user tried to install a media player, and when installing got failed dependencies. Don't just reply that you don't know what it is, to just gain credits.

Well the /tmp/ directory is temporary, but stores your current session as well, removing it and then rebooting would mean your current session would not be stored, and would resort back to default because it never had a session to save, if you turn off save sessions, then this may solve this problem.

For realplayer, it seems like you need to install the libraries for libstdc++, including the dynamic/shared objects.

They are on FC3 cd and can also be downloaded.

Try

rpm -q libstdc++ to see if it's installed, if not, use whatever update downloader you use, I prefer yum... su(do) yum -y install libstdc++ to install it.

If problems persist, remove realplayer, rpm -e RealPlayer and use yum to install it.

su(do) yum -y install RealPlayer

Using yum should install all dependacy for RealPlayer, well hopefully.

With suggesting yum, I hope you know how to configure your yum repo files to point to repositories that contain the rpm files needed.

Cheers,

MC

Never delete lock files.
They are used by some programs to detect when a resource is currently in use.

the error message was shown because GNOME was trying to delete a lock file on shutdown, that you had already done.

You dont need to dlete temp files, they will be deleted automatically when they are no longer needed.

if you run a server, you may want to delete Log files in /var/log from time to time though. (or maybe trim the log files, they can hlp a lot if you crash, or get hacked)

Ever since i started using linux, ive been a KDE user. Every now and again, maybe 4 times in total,

it ! gnome 2.8 didnt quite work for me, but 2.10 (and the up comming 2.12) have me hooked. Ive even
started un-installing most of my KDE components. I think in the end, it wasnt that i prefere Gnome
