Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon

When connected to a gnome session using NX, gnome-settings-daemon refuses to 
start with the following error:
The program 'gnome-settings-daemon' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)'.
  (Details: serial 102 error_code 1 request_code 150 minor_code 8)
  (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.)

That's after using a workaround from bug 409621 so we don't get the Xinput 
error first.
Disabling the xrandr plugin in gconf workarounds the problem.

Here's a xrandr output from a NX session:
stgra...@orilla:~$ xrandr
