Applets fail to load -- huge drag!

Thanks for the idea. The issue with me seems to be the fact that the
bonobo-activation-server is hosed. I've tried reinstalling everything
GDM and bonobo related that I could find to no effect. Nothing
meaningful was logged (at least at the default log level for bonobo
and I didn't see where I could turn up the logging. Strace didn't give
me much to work with that I could understand anyway).

Finally I just gave up and repaved the system. That's a pretty
disappointing thing to have to do but I'd already spend enough time
scouring the web and looking on the ubuntu bug tracker. Luckily my
/home is on a separate drive and partition so it was fairly trivial to
do the rebuild.

p.s. I am sorry to see these lists so quiet, we need to be a resource
for each other.

Thanks again, I appreciate your help!

John
