Okay so now I know there was nothing wrong with my setup but OO users
(even gedit) were complaining that their apps disappeared for no reason
when we enabled openmosix for a trial period.

Tell me is there any way around this? Anyone who has setup openmosix
without facing this issue?

Sorry for cross posting on many lists but I feel this needs to be sorted
out or people made aware of likely pitfalls.
