I was seeing a "parse error" after trying to start gnome-settings-daemon,
right after a line about "xrandr", so for now I move the following 2 files
elsewhere:
and I am able to start a gnome session with my previously configured
settings. Apologies I don't have a copy of the error message I was seeing, I
could try returning those 2 files to their original locations.
Thanks!

I was seeing a "parse error" after trying to start gnome-settings- daemon,
right after a line about "xrandr", so for now I move the following 2 files
elsewhere:
./usr/lib/ gnome-settings- daemon- 2.0/libxrandr. so gnome-settings- daemon- 2.0/xrandr. gnome-settings- plugin
./usr/lib/
and I am able to start a gnome session with my previously configured
settings. Apologies I don't have a copy of the error message I was seeing, I
could try returning those 2 files to their original locations.
Thanks!
