File handle limits and gnome-appearance-properties



Hi,

I'm having strange issues with gnome-appearance-properties and IO limits. Most of the time, I can launch the application without problems, but the first few "Could not open file" errors show up immediately (the ones from capplet-common). Switching to the second tab in the application, Background, causes the "Error opening file: Too many files" set of warnings (errors?). I can tell from the GUI that problems exist, too, in that the Remove button's icon does not show up (it's a red X). From here, I performed two different actions to get the different outputs below. In the first set of errors, I clicked the Add button which crashed the application immediately with errors about trying to read .recent-used.xbel and more errors about too many files being open. For the second set out output, I clicked Close and ran into "I/O error: Too many open files".

While I can also post a bug report if suggested, I thought more productive discussion might come if I posted here.

I don't believe the problem is in HAL, as Nautilus works fine, even mounting remote SSH drives. It /may/ be related to FAM, although I think I configured this directly (I did not use inetd, but simply added it to rc.conf and rc.d). Similarly, I doubt it's actually a problem with simply having too low of limits.

I'm running NetBSD 4.0.1 with a generic kernel and pkgsrc-current, from where I got GNOME 2.24.

Any ideas on what might be causing these file limit problems?
