Taking a hint from:

[There is a problem with the configuration server. (/usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256)]

I compared the permissions of /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.system/ on the error machine against a new karmic install. This error machine had the permissions for the folder set to 775, the new karmic install have it set for 755. On the error machine I did:

$ sudo chmod 755 /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.system

and I am no longer getting the 'usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256' error msg.
