I have the problem where nautilus does not pick up the current theme.
Log out and log in do not resolve it.
Reboot does not resolve it.

Kill and restart gnome-settings-daemon and kill and restart nautilus do work.
Here is the
$ ps aux |grep settings
charles 3624 0.3 0.2 211568 12244 ? Rsl 11:54 0:06 /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon
$ kill -9 3624
$ gnome-settings-daemon
$ /usr/share/themes/exotic/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:336: error: invalid string constant "theme-menu-
widget_class ", expected valid string constant

The only recent change I can think of is that I installed Dropbox v1.0.20
