I'm running VIda LInux (Gentoo) with Gnome.

2006-02-09T20:01:02Z
2006-02-09T20:01:02Z This can be because you somehow have multiple copies runnin g, or your system incorrectly thinks a file is open. If this message persists, r estart your computer and try again. If it continues to persist, you may need to completely uninstall Second Life and reinstall it.
Can anyone explain this? DId I do something wrong?
