I had a little trouble finding the 4th line to change...It is in the init.php at or near line 98 (for me) You need to comment it out.

$GEEKLOG_DIR = $gallery->app->default["geeklog_dir"];

Sorry, that is what I meant when I said:
The first occurance in init.php where $GEEKLOG_DIR gets set which is simply fixed by commenting it out
