Comment 5 for bug 371585

I think i found it. I renamed my .gconf folder to .gconf_old and logged out and back in. All was perfectly well after that. I proceeded to copy a folder from .gconf_old to .gconf then log out/in. I did this for every folder in .gconf_old hoping via the process of elimination to find the culprit. ".gconf/desktop/gnome/session/required_components/%gconf.xml" is what was messing things up for me so i just set all my .gconf_old stuff back to .gconf except the "required_components" folder and now all is well. Hope this helps someone finding the bug that causes this to happen whether it's something in ubuntu or just me ;)
Since there wasn't a sessions folder in the auto generated .gconf folder to compare to my bad %gconf.xml, I'm attaching the culprit file in hope's that it can be used to maybe find the problem.
