This upload should fix the issue:

 gstreamer0.10 (0.10.10-1ubuntu2) edgy; urgency=low
 .
   * debian/patches/01_fix_gst_init_race_issue.patch:
 - backport patch from CVS to fix gst_init() race issue (GNOME: #355499),
   fix gnome-settings-daemon randomly refusing to start (Ubuntu: #59217)

Could people comment to say if they still have the issue or not after
upgrading to the new version?

Sebastien,

Thanks for your hard work nailing this down.  I've installed the update
and the problem so far has not recurred.  I've restarted several times
with and without Beryl, using CTL-ALT-BACKSPACE or full system restart
and have not seen the problem.

thanks again,
john

2006-10-02 Thread Lee Tambiah
On booting with the Live install disk on an IBM ThinkPAd R50e this bug
is produced. After logging in the GDM I am presented with a dialogue
which displays the following:-

There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.

Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work
correctly.

The last error message was:

Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application
did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply.
The reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log
in.

I installed edgy despite the error above and it seems fine at logging in
from a fresh boot. However if I log out back to the GDM and Log back in
I am given the following error:-

 There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.

Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work
correctly.

The last error message was:

Process /usr/lib/control-center/gnome-settings-daemon exited with status
1.

GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log
in.



If I produce the bug and the open a terminal and run:-

$ gnome-settings-daemon

I gain my theme back with the following output in terminal:

xrdb: *Label.background on line 243 overrides entry on line 170
xrdb: *Text.background on line 249 overrides entry on line 211
xrdb: *Label.foreground on line 255 overrides entry on line 171
xrdb: *Text.foreground on line 261 overrides entry on line 212

However as soon as I close terminal or use the Ctrl + C my theme then
returns back to the abnormal state.

I have exactly the same problem on Edgy. I went from Dapper to Edgy. 
The troubles came after a dist-upgrade. Before that I had Edgy runing ok.

When I reboot or restart X server, the problem comes back.

When I load gnome-settings-daemon manually then it's allright even if i
change session (without restarting X).

I have the same problem, but that is not the point.

Is there *any*  workaround? This is really annoying, especially when I'm
installing things like the new Nvidia beta driver and beryl, so I have
to restart X all the time. Every time there is the notice the daemon
couldn't be launched  and (re)starting it doesn't help...

I am having the same exact issue described,  I did manage to see gnome-

it outputted the following message before its death:

does not require manual layout management - but it is provided by the

And that's the only output for me, much like the original post.  It may
or may not start randomly.  I haven't seen it fail running under strace

Yes, when logout-login on the same user. Solution: reboot. Tried to stop
gdm, rm -rf /tmp/*, kill all of 'my' processes, and start gdm. Nope.

gnome-settings-daemon has been like this back and forth for years. This
means, the real bug is never solved. I dream of the day its main
developer actually fixes this once and for all.

This happens well, randomly, when logging in to my other account it works fine. 
(almost every time). And once when I ran gnome-keyboard-properties, it fixed it.

I only have it on re-logging in. However, I just tried and it only
happened on the third login (= the second re-log in). Weird...

The only thing I noticed when logging out is that the dbus-daemon and
the gnome-vfs-daemon don't get stopped, and another pair of these is
started whenever I log in... it's probably another bug, because when I
killed them prior to logging in, the gnome-settings-daemon bug still
popped up.

2006-09-18 Thread Sebastian Breier
I can confirm that.

I just installed a fresh edgy knot-3. When logging in for the first
time, everything is good. When I log out and log in again, I get this
message:

There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.

Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work
correctly.

The last error message was:

Process /usr/lib/control-center/gnome-settings-daemon exited with status
1

GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log
in.

See screenshot.

I can reproduce it always... whenever I log in for the second time
without rebooting, I have no settings daemon. Please tell me how to
further debug this (don't really know what to attach strace to).
