Why I am getting errors when launching gedit via ssh X11 forwarding ?
Issue
- RHEL6 default installation (without gui packages) was performed on system.
- When users are trying to run gedit to edit files,they are getting following errors:
**$ gedit test**
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "pk-gtk-module": libpk-gtk-module.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
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: /bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally without any error message)
