Two utilities that help you find things are locate and find
Read about them by doing "man find" or "man locate"

Hi,
Thank you for your reply. I guess deleting the directory would be OK
as long as I know where the directory is. I mistyped /schemas/... into
/schema/.... And I can not find it in my ~/.gconf directory, and
neither in /root/.gconf. Where should I look now?
Thank you for your kind attention.
Best Regards,

Hi, ive never used gconf but can't you just use rm?
(sudo rm -r /path/to/directory)

Hi,
I created a wrong directory for my own application in gconf by a typo.
When I try to remove it by gconf_engine_remove_dir, I got the GError
stating: "Failed: Remove directory operation is no longer supported,
just remove all the values in the directory."
Should I reinstall the whole system to get rid of the directory?
Living with it is simply not an option for me. Any suggestions?
Best Regards,
