Public bug reported:
I have been updating Hardy on a regular basis. I have had a problem with
the gnome-settings-daemon crashing on login for the last month. I logged
a problem before but it was shutdown because the failure didn't result
in a crash file that could be uploaded. I found that if I go into gconf-
editor and turn off the xrandr plugin under gnome-settings everything
works fine.
By the way, the problem has been around for a month, then last week with
the libc disaster I reinstalled to the current release of Hardy and the
problem returned. I would really appreciate a little help on this one...
not sure where to turn... Like I said it works now, but I shouldn't have
to disable the plugin without a little better rationale.
It would be really handy if there were a debug version of gnome-settngs
that could be installed for additional information.
