Nicolas, that works for me only for some settings like terminal profile, DPI settings, and window theme. It doesn't work for icon theme, at least it doesn't change the icons in the launcher.
My work around at the moment is to log out, move to "Guest" user in login screen, move back to my user and login. That usually does it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to unity-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1369251 Title: unity-settings-daemon doesn't load settings at boot Status in “unity-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When booting my PC, my gtk and unity settings(gtk theme, icon theme, DPI scaling, ...) are not loaded and when I login I find myself in a "default" environment. If I log-out and login again, the settings are loaded correctly. Could this be caused by a really fast boot (3-4 seconds from GRUB to login screen, SSD) and a "unity version" of bug #574269? I've tried editing the autostart script to add a little sleep but it seems to work only occasionally. Attached x-0-greeter.log, is it useful?
