Public bug reported:

When I launch it from my default (non-root) user account, the 
gnome-control-center is missing all settings panels, except "Printers" and 
"Software & Updates".
Launching it with a commandline parameter to open a specific settings panel 
fails, too:
  $ gnome-control-center display
  ** (gnome-control-center.real:10217): WARNING **: Could not find settings 
panel "display"

I can only access the panels that aren't listed by launching gnome-
control-center as root.

I previously had access to the panels that are now only displayed for
root, but I can't pinpoint what caused them to vanish. Is there anything
I could do to find and fix whatever caused this?

I have already reported this bug on bugzilla.gnome.org[1], but apparently 
version 3.6.3 of the gnome-control-center is no longer supported by the GNOME 
developers and neither are Ubuntu's patched versions of it.

I'm using Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 with i3 as my window manager, but with the
gnome-settings-daemon running to handle keyboard shortcuts and display
configuration.
