Hello,

I'm getting an error message from the gnome-settings-daemon when I log in,
and the desktop takes more time than usual to appear.

Running Lenny 5.0 with Gnome 2.22.3

The error message is:

"There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.

Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work
correctly.

The last error message was:

Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did
not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the
reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log in."


In the .xsession-errors there's a part where to warnings that could be
relevant are shown:

Window manager warning: Failed to read saved session file
/home/juan/.metacity/sessions/default0.ms: Failed to open file
'/home/juan/.metacity/sessions/default0.ms': No such file or directory

and

** (gnome-settings-daemon:7677): WARNING **: Failed to open file
'/etc/gnome/config/General.ad': No such file or directory


If I run 'gnome-settings-daemon --debug --no-daemon' I get the following:

** (gnome-settings-daemon:9367): WARNING **: Failed to acquire
org.gnome.SettingsDaemon

** (gnome-settings-daemon:9367): WARNING **: Could not acquire name
** (gnome-settings-daemon:9367): DEBUG: SettingsDaemon finished


There's a bug report that speaks of this but there's no conclusion yet about
it: bug #473409: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=473409


Anyone is having the same issue  / knows the way to solve it?


Thanks in advance,
Juan.
