I am also experiencing this issue with Xubuntu desktop in 11.10.

Light DM becomes unusable, cannot start Ubuntu Software Center or Update
Manager, etc - all related to dbus exiting when networking is stopped.

Alonso's workaround works for me, tho I'm not sure it is the proper long
term solution.

  Confirmed

Bug description:
  gnome-settings-[2165]: segfault at 8 ip 00d5a5a8 sp bf8051f0 error 4
  in libpower.so[d4b000+18000]

  Reliable gnome-settings-daemon crash every time an oneiric system is
  suspended then resumed in VMware Player.  Occurs under both VMware
  Player 3.x and the newest 4 version.  Crash occurs when tried with
  open-vm tools and the official VMware bundle.

  When gnome-settings-daemon crashes the desktop has no theming and
  broken menus.  A restart is needed.
