This bug makes working cumbersome.
The machine is ok in the early morning.
I leave home for work and return after 9.5-10 hours.
gnome-settings-daemon is making the numlock blink feverishly and the system 
slowish.
So we kill gnome-settings-daemon.
Also we kill the dconf thing.
We log out. The machine completes slowly.
We log in and stuff is mostly fine again for the rest of the day and next 
morning.

But is this a nice way to work with the box?
Therefor I increased severity again.

Mikhail created a very nice bug report.

Hi all,

this bug shows up for me as well.
FC17 x86_64 up to date.

dconf-service and gnome-settings-daemon are taking 100% CPU and doing a
lot of I/O on disk.


For me it was triggered, _each time_, when using vino-server (Gnome 3 remote 
desktop) on the local machine (the one having the problem). I was connected 
from a distant client (this one did not malfunction ever) to this local machine.

I was killing both services to restore the usability of the remote machine, and 
it oftently crashes the session.
Eventually both services were automatically restarted and the problem was here 
again, and I had to kill both services again and risking a session crash.

Temporary fix :
Using dconf-editor : uncheck the check-box from 
org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.keyboard.remember-numlock-state.
This temporary fix works for me.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '17'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

Bug Reporter:  Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you 
would still like  to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version  of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 
'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Title:
  [keyboard]: gnome-settings-daemon consumes 100% cpu (and blinking
  numlock)

Status in GNOME Settings Daemon:

  Fix Released
Status in gnome-settings-daemon source package in Precise:

Status in gnome-settings-daemon source package in Quantal:

Bug description:
  Impact:
  gnome-settings-daemon uses 100% cpu for ever in some cases

  Test Case:
  Seems to happen sometimes after docking or connecting with vnc, try to 
connect to the machine using a vnc client a few times and check there is no 
numlock cycle and cpu usage loop starting

  Regression potential:
  The numlock state could be wrongly set,restored on login in some cases

  -----------------

  Original message:
  -----------------

  I don't know how to reproduce this bug, but after varying amounts of
  normal usage of my laptop, I notice gnome-settings-daemon is consuming
  100% (approx) CPU.

  I am not sure how to restart gnome-settings-daemon, I tried opening a
  terminal and running gnome-settings-daemon again but this crashes my
  system - my external monitor switches off and my laptop locks up. I am
  able to reboot with SysRq+REISUB.

  Sorry I cannot provide more information - it happens twice now, maybe
  someone can tell me how to get more information for the next time this
  happens.
