Gedit and Gnome X11 Gconf Error

[Jasper Frumau]

I just installed Gedit after installing all the necessary packages on my brand new Mac Book Pro. When I enter gedit from the command line it prints a whole bunch of errors and then launches Gedit. Here are the errors:

GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details -  1: Failed to get connection to session: Not enough memory)

Dynamic session lookup supported but failed: launchd did not provide a socket path, verify that org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist is loaded!

I did some research and found someone with a similar problem @ http://www.nabble.com/Meld-fails-to-start--complains-about-launchd-not-providing-socket--path-td23618152.html

I executed the following commands from the command line:

sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist 

sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.freedesktop.dbus-system.plist 

then I restarted. But still I get the same errors when I start up Gedit from the command line.

Any ideas how to fix this?
