I can confirm the exact same behavior witnessed by Mike in comment #5
and Erwin above. In my case I have been trying to troubleshoot the
extreme lack of theming in Oneiric - it never occurred to me to unplug
my external WD My Book, which has been "recognized" as a keyboard for as
long as I can remember but has never given me any difficulty.
Once unplugged, I can start gnome-settings-daemon fine, and windows are
themed.
(gnome-settings-daemon:4587): Gdk-WARNING **: The program
'gnome-settings-daemon' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
(Details: serial 873 error_code 8 request_code 143 minor_code 22)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
