Craig,
Thanks. I actually rebooted the machine after apt-get upgrade and that is
when the problem occurred. I then shutdown the machine and started it up
again and the problem persisted.
I looked in /var/log for a gnome log, but I don't see anything. Dmesg
doesn't show any errors that I can see. Where does gnome write error
messages?
Thanks again!
Mark
