Bug description:
  Impact
  ------
  GDM's login screen was being start with no gnome-settings-daemons plugins. In 
particular, this broke Hi-DPI support in the login screen

  Test Case
  ---------
  - Install the update on a computer running Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 with a Hi-DPI 
display (ideally one that worked well with Ubuntu GNOME 16.10).
  - Restart your computer.
  - The login screen should automatically show at the right scale.

  Regression Potential
  --------------------
  See the other 3.24.2 bugs but this commit is a simple typo fix.

  Original Bug Report
  -------------------
  Ubuntu gnome 17.04, gnome 3.24. On high resolution display, 3200x1800, login 
screen is too tiny to read. GDM login screen doesn't reflect changes to 
org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor or text-scaling-factor.

  Eg:
  xhost +SI:localuser:gdm
  sudo su gdm -s /bin/bash
  gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor 2
  gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor 2.0

  no effect.

  Creating a gdm user under /etc/dconf and running dconf update has no
  effect either. Scaling-factor seems to scale the mouse cursor, but
  nothing else.
