Ok, so I upgraded to opensuse 10.3 and I noticed that my menus in openoffice are really slow. I did some digging with strace and it seems that it's reading the environment variable SESSION_MANGER to get some information. Turns out this environment variable is supposed to point to the PID of gnome-session (with some other stuff). If I unset it, then openoffice is nice an fast again. With some more debugging it seems that if I start up gnome-terminal with Alt-F2, SESSION_MANAGER is set correctly. However if I start it up from the menu, it's set wrong, in fact it always points to the same pid, that nothing is running as.
