Hello, how did you install it and how?
(I meants what, not how). At first sight, it seems taht your GConf schemas are not installed and that causes the crash.
1. Upgraded system to gnome 2.4 (rpms from http://www.suse.de/de/private/download/gnomes/i386/update_for_8_2/index.html) 2. Then Upgraded packages: gnomemeeting-0.98.5-4.i586.rpm openh323-1.12.3-4.i586.rpm pwlib-1.5.3-5.i586.rpm
I don't have 0.98.5 at hand anymore, but checking if GConf is correctly installed should be straightforward : - Did you have to change the value of a GConf key to force its startup? - What is the result of gconftool-2 -g /apps/gnomemeeting/port/tcp_port_range ?
I didn't change/update any "keys" to my knowledge. To be honest I'm not sure what your referring to. I just rpm -Uhv the gnome2.4 packages to get things working and then ran ldconfig && SuSEconfig. Also not farmiliar with gconf2 but here's the output. [alan@linux] gconftool-2 -g /apps/gnomemeeting/port/tcp_port_range No value set for `/apps/gnomemeeting/port/tcp_port_range' [alan@linux] gconftool-2 --all-dirs /apps/gnomemeeting /apps/gnomemeeting/general /apps/gnomemeeting/call_forwarding /apps/gnomemeeting/audio_codecs /apps/gnomemeeting/devices
ok, so that is indeed a misconfiguration problem. I suggest you to use the mailing list to get help, I have never used SuSE, so I can't really help with it.

Okay· Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I've located the suse install-schema scripts and will adjustment them.
