Comment 3 for bug 935947

Is this reproducible? If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug?

The bug survives reboots and reinstalls.
I installed from Xubuntu 11.10 media, but my current system is based around the metapack "ubuntu-desktop", installed without "considering recommended packages as dependencies", so it may be missing a few "deb"s compared to the live-cd standard install.
Most relevant of those maybee is the lack of recommended "telepathy-idle".
