rh8.0/Gnome/Python isue...

["bruce" <bedouglas earthlink net>]

hi...

i'm running rh8.0 with gnome.. i'm not sure of the version (it's whatever rh
shipped).

i've recently updated (or tried to update) python to the latest version.
when i try to run the 'Server Settings/Services' Icon within gnome, nothing
happens...

i tried to run the 'start services' command from a command line, and got the
following...

it appears to be a conflict somewhere...

---------------------------------------------------------

can someone perhaps suggest a solution, or point me to where i might find a
solution to this issue. could the python changes be causing a problem? would
upgrading gnome potentially fix the issue? can you upgrade gnome without
upgrading the rh kernel?

thanks
