[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 660536] Re: Tomboy crashes because it can't connect to session(?)

[crane cai]

Hi Armstrong,

I met the same error when using Ubuntu 10.10 without gnome window
manager. I use awesome instead which will not launch gnome-session. And
it will cause the error.

Other finding are:
* if launch gnome-session manually, then in another terminal, I launch tomboy same error.
* if Iaunch gnome-session manully, then an gnome-applet occurs which launched by gnome-session, touch the tomboy icon in panel, tomboy launch well.

Brs,
-Crane

I expected this to start 'tomboy', like it used to in 10.04.  I don't normally run gnome-session, but I tried to start it just to see if that would fix it, but I got the same behavior.  This is on Ubuntu 10.10, (Architecture: amd64, Version: 1.4.0-0ubuntu2).
