This is a strange bug: I have GNOME and Gamin 0.1.2, and whenever I start a fresh GNOME session everything works perfectly. However, after a while (I couldn't track down a trigger), suddenly I lose all the FAM functionality until I restart the session. By the way, when I quit a problematic session, there's still a gam_server running, I dont know if it means anything.

Any chance to try 2.6.13-rc4 or such that have the new inotify sources ?
I didn't try another kernel, but the problem stopped appearing since upgrading to version 0.1.3. I'll close this bug for now, unless it appears again.
