I was seeing this with 2.26.0-0ubuntu1, but if I move away my ~/.local/share/desktop-applet, it will start. If I put my old copy back in, it crashes on startup again. This box was just upgraded from intrepid to jaunty. The only thing in ~/.local/share/desktop-applet/ is the history file and an empty modules dir.
