I've been running Arch Linux for quite some time now and in the beginning I was running KDEmod as my desktop. When GNOME2.22 came (and hit the stable Arch repos) I wanted to give it a try. So I installed it alongside KDEmod but I've having various issues with it. I decided to remove KDEmod and use the vanilla KDE packages from Arch Linux and that solved a few of my problems with GNOME 2.22 but I still have two more issues I need to work out. First problem is with firefox or more exactly gecko is the problem. When I close firefox gecko crashes and I get the following error report

plus a whole more output. My next problem is with gnome-system-tools. When I have this package installed the gnome-panel crashed immediately on login. Here is the error report that GNOME generates

I've been trying for weeks now to figure out what is causing this but I can't so any ideas/help will be much appreciated.

Well, the firefox crash I finally solved. It seems like the latest version of the Gmail Notifier extension I had installed caused the crash, so I removed it.

Did you tried to create a new user and use the default gnome setup (default icons, no compiz ...)?

Yes I tried that and nautilus still crashes. Actually what happens is that I can't see my icons on my desktop and my background has disappeared when I log in. Opening nautilus after that crashes.

I did a fresh install of Arch today and now gnome-system-tools work. But for some reason when I run users-admin (with gksu or su from terminal) it doesn't list any users. Neither root or my user. Why is that?

Now I know what caused the crash of gnome-system-tools. My Arch machine is a member of ADS (ActiveDirectory) domain. Since I had a fresh install I hadn't set it up yet to join the domain. The minute I did nautilus started crashing.
