I also get the same error message as the original reporter when I try to
start the appearances menu:

Unable to start the settings manager 'gnome-settings-daemon'.
Without the GNOME settings manager running, some preferences may not take 
effect. This could indicate a problem with Bonobo, or a non-GNOME (e.g. KDE) 
settings manager may already be active and conflicting with the GNOME settings 
manager.
