after some investigation, it seems that gconfd is launched under GDMSESSION=une-guest-restricted instead under "une" value like in lucid. Consequently, all the session tweak to launch the right parameters doesn't hence.

What is weird is that there is still my changes for lucid:
/usr/share/gdm/guest-session/Xsession:
export GDMSESSION="${GDMSESSION%%-guest-restricted}"
and all other guest user session process have GDMSESSION=une environment variable. All, but gconfd!

I tried to revert to lucid gdm, gconf, gdm-guest-session and old unity, but didn't get it working. I think something changed in the order.

So, the current workaround is to symlink where gconf is reading his value from the une guest restricted session to une ones. We will make more deep changes to Natty.
