[Bug 649809] Re: the session settings manager can try starting before the login screen one exits

 

After a recent system update gnome-settings-daemon crashes with segmentation fault upon login to gnome shell (installed from ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3, gnome-settings-daemon 3.0.1-0ubuntu1~build4). The #68 comment hack makes it even worse: the session hangs (nevertheless, it did the trick under with vanilla ubuntu-10.10: I was affected until upgraded to Natty + Gnome3, have SSD, Core i7). 
Before the update everything worked just fine (gnome-settings-daemon 3.0.1-0ubuntu1~build3.1).

Starting gnome-settings-daemon from terminal gives the following output: 

** (gnome-settings-daemon:3920): WARNING **: Ignoring unknown module 'org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.gconf'

Segmentation fault

Sorry, if this is the wrong place, but the symptoms are the same: ugly
theme and lack of some keyboard shortcuts.
