A couple of things you might want to try: a) removing any references to .recently-used files in your home or GARNOME directories, this has caused issues for a few people that went from 2.8.2 to 2.10.0.1 -- and looking at Bugzilla, http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=157723 looks pretty spot on. b) removing any local fonts.conf files (especially if you've compiled bootstrap/freetype and friends) so that your GARNOME installation correctly finds it's fonts. c) restarting gconfd as per the FAQ question, either quit X (and any stale X processes, GNOME apps, etc.), and run 'gconftool-2 --shutdown' from the prompt. (or rebooting, which does about the same thing) d) if you have locally defined menu shortcuts in your home directory, defining XDG_DATA_HOME=<whereever_your_local_app_menus_are> in the GARNOME startup script might also be of help.
