In the past when my Gnome desktop has started acting flakey I've
renamed

~/.gnome  to  ~/.gnome.old

and 

~/.gnome-desktop  to  ~/.gnome-desktop.old

logged out and then logged back in. Gnome will create new
.gnome and .gnome-desktop files.

You'll have to redo all your preferences which can be a hassle but
it has cured the few odd problems I've had with the Gnome desktop,
YMMV.
