Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon

Greetings,

I've been testing Jaunty for a few days now. Yesterday I discovered
quite an annoying bug: Immediatly after being started, gnome-settings-
daemon starts to fill RAM and SWAP with useless stuff, as I suppose.

Starting at using 8 MiB or so it will slowly occupy more and more RAM
(around 1 MiB/s) and eventually use all my free RAM and afterwards my
SWAP partition which makes the system unusable after an hour.

I already purged und reinstalled the package containing the daemon but
this didn't help at all. Stopping the daemon eliminates the problem but
makes GNOME look quite ugly.

I'd love to give you guys more information, but starting it from
terminal didn't give me any output.
