** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gnome-session
  
  The problem is happening on my desktop with a high frequency but is not 100% 
reproducible. It usually happens on the first login after booting the system 
and can be fixed with a re-login.
  The gnome theme simply fails to get applied, I get a working system but with 
a stock GTK theme.

@ ThomasNovin: thanks for reading my post and noticing it too.

By now I can say:
Reproducible: YES.

Since I mainly do standby (especially when on the go) and can boot on AC
Power (when eventually / occasionally I decide to (re-)boot)), this
problem doesn't really affect me much.

Only when I forget to boot and find myself needing to boot on battery
I'm in a bit of a trouble.

But I guess I can refer back to above posts about killing and restarting
gnome-settings-daemon to help me out then...

tp.

May it be related to or duplicate of

It seems that the bug is affecting many people, and newbies may not be
comfortable with killall gnome-settings-daemon; gnome-settings-daemon 
nautilus -q as a solution.

I noticed that this (probably) only happens when I start my IBM Thinkpad

If I start with AC adapter plugged in, however, everything seems to be
fine...

Reproducible: likely so (will keep observing, but won't restart system

2011-04-05 Thread Sanjeev Sharma
EDIT to comment #23:

Please excuse my newbieness with Linux systems but the shell script that
I was intending had to be (and also if someone didn't know its
executable bit must also be enabled by using chmod):

--
#!/bin/bash
# gsettingsdaemonfix.sh

pid=$(pgrep gnome-settings-)

# if [ -n $pid ]
# then
#ps $pid  /home/sanjeev/Desktop/gnomesettingsdebug1.txt
# else
#echo No previous instance of gnome-settings-daemon running!  
/home/sanjeev/Desktop/gnomesettingsdaemondebug.txt
# fi

while [ -n $pid ];
do
pid=$(pgrep gnome-settings-)
sleep 0
done

exit 0

--
Turns out 'wait' only works for child processes. I wonder why.

Enabling the 'if' comments will output some useful information about
previously running instance (be sure to change the path as according to
your system). I also changed the name of the script from 'gnome-
settings-daemon-fix.sh' to 'gnomesettingsdaemonfix.sh' as pgrep couldn't
distinguish between process name of the running script and process name
of the daemon as it compares only 15 characters of process names (Again,
I cannot explain this). Hence, the edited 'gnome-settings-
daemon.desktop' should be:

--
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=GNOME Settings Daemon
Exec=bash -c 'bash /etc/xdg/autostart/gnomesettingsdaemonfix.sh 
;/usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon'
OnlyShowIn=GNOME;
NoDisplay=false
X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=Initialization
X-GNOME-Autostart-Notify=true
X-GNOME-AutoRestart=true
X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=gnome-settings-daemon
--

I captured the following about the previously running instance of settings 
daemon:
  PID TTY  STAT   TIME COMMAND
 1514 ?Ds 0:00 [gnome-settings-]

Collision between this instance and the instance run by '.desktop' file
may be the cause of the theme problem in my system. This solution seems
to be working for me.

This bug is the same that bug #649809 (which already has a proposed
solution).

For those that are experiencing this problem, please install the gnome-
settings-daemon package from the ppa https://launchpad.net/~rodrigo-
moya/+archive/ppa.

The proposed solution on ppa will be uploaded to natty repository soon,
but I don't know if it will be backported to maverick.

Anyway, probably the people that are having problems with theme at

2011-03-29 Thread Sanjeev Sharma
I think the problem is two instances of 'gnome-settings-daemon' being
run. Normally, they had to be run one after another.

The following fixed the problem for me:

Step 1: Create a script (I called it gnome-settings-daemon-fix.sh) under 
/etc/xdg/autostart with the following:
#!/bin/bash
# gnome-settings-daemon-fix.sh

pid='pgrep gnome-settings-'
wait pid

exit 0

Step 2: Edit 'gnome-settings-daemon.desktop' under 'Exec=' entry and replace it 
with:
Exec=bash -c 'bash /etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-settings-daemon-fix.sh 
;/usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon'

6 restarts show this works. But can somebody report if this worked for
you?

My system is Dell XPS 14 with I7 processor and Ubuntu installed with
Wubi. The problem seemed to occur after installing NVIDIA drivers but as
I installed these drivers immediately after I installed Ubuntu, I cannot
confirm.

The above workaround didn't help me. Core i7  SSD.

The daemon doesn't crash - it requires a SIGKILL and then manual re-
launching. This happens *every* time I login, in natty.

Also, if you send SIGTERM, the process just does this over and over:
write(2, \n(gnome-settings-daemon:3263): G..., 116) = 116
write(2, \n(gnome-settings-daemon:3263): G..., 113) = 113
write(2, \n(gnome-settings-daemon:3263): G..., 116) = 116
write(2, \n(gnome-settings-daemon:3263): G..., 113) = 113
write(2, \n(gnome-settings-daemon:3263): G..., 116) = 116

A trace of the misbehaving gnome-settings-daemon looks the same as a 
functioning one, sadly :(
(it's just polling various file descriptors)

2011-01-08 Thread mitch
I had this same issue on my i7 box (no SSD though) in both Ubuntu 10.10
and Linux Mint 10. I was able to fix the issue by following the solution
posted here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-
daemon/+bug/649809 post #68 which adds a short delay to the daemon
loading on startup.

Basically it involves editing /etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-settings-
daemon.desktop and changing line 4 to:

Exec= bash -c sleep 2; /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-
daemon

Hope this helps.

din99,
thanks for your willingness to help resolving this bugs, but your assessment is 
incorrect, please read the previous comments before adding your own to a bug 
report, many of the reports for this bug just as for bug 439448 are from people 
with a single home, single release configuration.

There maybe issues resulting from running multiple releases with a
shared home, that is related to how different application versions
manage their data/settings, such issues (which seems to be your case)
are not related to the bugs being reported.

Same problem here. And I'm using a SATA HDD and a slow processor.

I think that is a problem related to the hard drive disc (because the
boot is slow, and this happens). But I've already checked the filesystem
and it's clean. I don't know what to do.

2010-12-14 Thread Rory Kurek
I'm also getting the same error with an i7 CPU and and SSD. As suggested
in the thread above, I killed and restarted gnome-settings-daemon, which
restored the panel theme. However, changing the theme in the Appearance
window would not change the skin for the panel. As you can see, the rest
of the theming is messed up as well. After a reinstall, it seemed like I
could avoid the bug by not installing the fglrx drivers for my Radeon
card, but after a while, the bug showed up anyway. May try installing to
a new partition on a mechanical drive in the next few days just to see
what happens.

2010-11-30 Thread ..edrik
Is a common factor here that Ubuntu is running on a SSD drive?

If so, it's most likely the same issue reported in bug #625670 and bug #649809 
as well.
Affecting reasonably fast setups like Core i7 and an SSD boot drive. With the 
scenario that gnome-settings-daemon is running fine after startup but the theme 
setting are not applied.

Got the same problem here on a clean install of Maverick. Attaching my 
session-errors.
I'm left with no theme applied when this happens. I never got this problem some 
time after the bootup. Either I get the theme or not at all (1/10 times).

2010-11-20 Thread Alex Black
I think I'm experiencing this bug too.  In the past few weeks, I've
installed Ubuntu 10.10 x64 desktop on brand new self-built machines.
One of the first things I did to each was to activate the Nvidia driver,
once I rebooted, themes no longer seem to be applied, the UI looked like
9.04.

Details:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/11406/gnome-settings-daemon-doesnt-apply-themes-unless-i-kill-it-and-start-it-manuall
http://askubuntu.com/questions/14115/xsession-errors-is-2-7gb-big-and-growing-on-fresh-install-caused-by-gnome

Issue:
- (everytime) when I log in, the UI appears to have no theme, and looks old 
school like 9.04
- if I kill gnome-settings-daemon, and then invoke it manually from the command 
line, the themes then get applied, except in the file viewer (nautilus) it seems

This bug is probably a duplicate of Bug #588155.

@Wes : just run gnome-settings-daemon (you can use alt-f2 for example)

How do I reload the theme if it fails at startup? I mean, without
logging in again.
