I changed "etch" to "unstable" in sources.list. Then I did

installed orbit2 and upgraded liborbit2 to version 1:2.14.4-1 and
held back a whole bunch of stuff. Then I logged out and back in
again. No change. It still goes all wiggly on me and finally
gives me the second error popup. (The first error popup isn't
expected at this point -- I answered "Delete" the first time it
came up a while ago and haven't seen it since.)
On an off chance, I rebooted the system. Still no change. Still
all wiggly.
Interesting difference -- Now it stays wiggly forever (well -- for 5
minutes or more). I never actually see the error popup, and the
wiggles never go away.
Looks like gnome-settings-daemon is dying again and again.
Yes. I can confirm that repeated "ps" gives different pids each time
for gnome-settings-daemon .
Is there any relevant output in your ~/.xsession-errors file ?
it looks like this:
Xsession: X session started for rick at Thu Dec 28 18:45:08 EST 2006
SESSION_MANAGER=local/debian:/tmp/.ICE-unix/3460
Gnome-Message: gnome_execute_async_with_env_fds: returning -1
Unable to open desktop file epiphany.desktop for panel launcher
Does that help?
