[Bug 873545] Re: No GTK theme applied on login / theme lost after gnome-settings-daemon error.

 

Comment #40 explains and fixes the problem. The clipboard manager
integrated in gnome-settings-daemon doesn't work correctly. When an
application (like Opera or Skype) closes, it tries to get the clipboard
content of those applications and crashes. Knowing this I could
reproduce the crash any time.

Open Skype, copy something, close Skype, crash.

Disabling g-s-d's integrated clipboard-manager stops the crashes. If you
need a clipboard manager you can try popular options like Parcellite or
Diodon.

I'll update title and description with this information.

  No GTK theme applied on login / theme lost after gnome-settings-daemon
  error.

Bug description:
  I just updated to Ubuntu 11.10 - and everything looked perfectly okay - except Nautilus!
  All icons are the same, they are black/white and really "boring". The breadcrumb view looks like back in Windows 3.1 times...
  :-(
