The error dialog appeared after I booted the Live CD, when the ubuntu
user logged in.
I suppose that's the way the data you're looking for should have been
logged to that file.
Regarding the other, painful attempts to stop/start
gnome-settings-daemon anew, no, I haven't seen a message in these cases.
I imagine that the message is issued by some too impatient ("Timeout
likely, 400 MHZ") code wanting to use the daemon and receiving no prompt
reply in the case of a slow CD-based startup.
So, beyond one missed request if that's true, the only consequence is
the "Ugly to see in a demo".
You should indeed imagine a party commenting about the slowness of CDs
while watching the long-lasting brown, blank screen, saying "ah" when a
white rectangle draws in the top left corner, and saying "oh" quite a
number of seconds later when the first sign of intelligence they receive
is an error message.
If raising a time-out can avoid that, it'll be well spent time.
