Two other things of note, I am not sure if they are relevant:
First,  I have the Blueman Applet starting up as one of my Startup Applications.  I do not have an internal bluetooth chip on my netbook, and so have a small bluetooth USB dongle which is usually attached to the USB Hub I use as a 'docking station' for my netbook when I am at home and using a larger monitor, external wireless keyboard, mouse etc.  However, this time, I did not have any USB devices attached, including the bluetooth dongle, and the blueman applet still was started in my Startup Applications without the hardware attached.  The crash occurred about 30 seconds after login.  

Second, I have observed a few times, that the Ubuntu One Indicator
sometimes seems to take awhile to startup and connect, indicated by
'lighting up'  It seems that when the crash occurs it is usually one of
the times that Ubuntu One seems to be delayed in connecting.  It does
not seem that every time Ubuntu One is delayed I receive this crash
however, and Ubuntu One is not delayed on every boot.

Just 2 observations, like I said they may not be relevant, but they may
help.  Let me know.

Title:
  gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5 in xkl_process_error()

Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Here's a note I included in a similar bug (797947) that may help to
  diagnose as this might be a timing issue:

  I'd like to add that I can never get gnome-settings-daemon to start
  and stay running for more than 5 seconds, UNLESS i take the following
  actions, in which case it applies the themes properly and responds to
  theme changes and generally works just fine:

  1. start 'strace gnome-settings-daemon' in a window
  2. wait until the terminal appears to hang in the middle of the output
  3. switch to a virtual console (ALT+F1) and login
  4. pkill -9 strace
  5. switch back to X - everything is fine!

  This works about 95% of the time.

  This is a laptop that always gets this error on boot up and only has
  one screen, no docking station, so its not anything related to screen
  size I should think.
