Fixed.  Thanks.

Invoked from a telnet console running in LinuxAos on the same machine.
Similar to invoking from a plain text console on another machine on 
the LAN.

(I'm aware that telnet is not secure but the scenario is in a 
Shorewalled system.)

Always.  LinuxAos is a graphical application.

Never.

Now tried this analogue.  Start mousepad from a ssh console on another 
machine on the LAN. 

No dconf-WARNING but this message is spewed.

(mousepad:13080): Gtk-WARNING **: 10:57:15.680: Theme parsing error: 
<data>:2:29: The style property GtkButton:default-border is deprecated 
and shouldn't be used anymore. It will be removed in a future version

My conclusion: the ssh process handles something right for dconf.
LinuxAos fails to do that.

If someone has a more specific idea about dconf, it can help.

Thx,                                ... P.
