At the moment I can only get AWN to work if I use sudo:

Code:
$ sudo avant-window-navigator
Screen is composited.
APPLET : /usr/lib64/awn/applets/taskman.desktop

And it works fine.

Without sudo:
Code:
$ avant-window-navigator
Screen is composited.

** (avant-window-navigator:6242): WARNING **: Could not load the desktop item at '/home/brendan/.config/awn/launchers/awn_launcher.desktop': No such file or directory
Segmentation fault

I have tried
Code:
$ touch .config/awn/launchers/awn_launchers.desktop

but that changed the error message to "file is empty"

And when I try to run it as root:
Code:
# avant-window-navigator

** (avant-window-navigator:6281): WARNING **: Failed to make connection to session bus: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

** (avant-window-navigator:6281): CRITICAL **: dbus_g_proxy_new_for_name: assertion `connection != NULL' failed

** (avant-window-navigator:6281): CRITICAL **: dbus_g_proxy_call: assertion `DBUS_IS_G_PROXY (proxy)' failed

** (avant-window-navigator:6281): WARNING **: There was an error requesting the name: (null)
Segmentation fault


I have tried to remove the awn folder in the hope that it would recreate itself - with no effect.
I am running KDE 3.5 with compiz and emerald all working fine using a nvidia 9300 card.

Here is my emerge --info
Code:
$ emerge --info
