NOTE: You will, of course, lose all your previously saved settings, although your maps will still remain where you had previously downloaded them (in order to see them, you may have to set your repository's cache dir after resetting your gconf settings).

If you do end up resetting your settings, let me know if you experience further segfaults or other errors. It is possible that some of these issues are cropping up due to maemo-mapper 1.2's attempt to "upgrade" from the 1.1 settings layout.

Thanks ... this did the trick. I also used the -a option to dump the original gconf settings to a file before I wiped them. So if you want a copy for debugging purposes, let me know your email address at michael.wiktowy (at) gmail.com. However, it seems that you have put out another version that may have fixed this problem to begin with.
