Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-settings-
I get this error whenever I log on a fully updated hardy:
"There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.
Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work correctly.
The Settings Daemon restarted too many times.
GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log in."
$ ps aux | grep settings
osito 21255 0.0 0.1 3000 756 pts/0 R+ 09:25 0:00 grep settings
Attached the output of when I try to manually do:
$ sudo gnome-settings-
The program 'gnome-
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)'.
(Details: serial 89 error_code 1 request_code 151 minor_code 6)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
My version of it:
$ sudo aptitude show gnome-settings-

Not sure this is a duplicate, in my case it doesn't seem to be crashing.
