Any suggestions?

Title:
  gnome-settings-daemon crashes when started in NX session

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

Bug description:
  gnome-settings-daemon crashes when started in NX session.

  (gnome-settings-daemon:20586): Gdk-WARNING **: The program 'gnome-settings-daemon' received an X Window System error.
  This probably reflects a bug in the program.
  The error was 'XSyncBadCounter'.
    (Details: serial 195 error_code 146 request_code 137 minor_code 5)
    (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
     that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
     To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
     option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
     backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

  Could you open another bug for it?
