3-4 day old gnome-2.7 was not too stable, anyway upgrading to latest
version and will report results, 
(what was wrong for me so far: 
   gnumeric show error on startup /already reported here/, 
   System -> New Session does not work - it make screen white and all
	  If I do Ctrl-Alt-F1 then back - old session is locked
   evolution-1.5.94.1_1 -> on print it paused for about 20 sec then show
print     dialogue, if I select Paper Size it paused forever ..., but if
I click print - it prints

)

while upgrade there is a bit warnings on gnomevfs2:
