	Good one!

	Yes, there were a slew of errors mostly, I think, from KDE
	trying  to  spawn whatever initialization stuff it stashes in
	/tmp.  After I quit KDE and tried Gnome, there were/are both
	WARNING's anf CRITICAL level errors.  

	errors file read in below.  (abbrvt'd :)

	Part of the errs like the XErr: BadWindow lines started showing
	up weeks ago when I ssh around.  My best guess is an ssh config
	error.  But why would Gnome care about this?  What if my FBSD 
	computer were standalone?

	The glib failures are head-scratches too... .

	HTH!
