[Desktop-packages] [Bug 873545] Re: No GTK theme applied on login / theme lost after gnome-settings-daemon error.
Comment #40 explains and fixes the problem. The clipboard manager integrated in gnome-settings-daemon doesn't work correctly. When an application (like Opera or Skype) closes, it tries to get the clipboard content of those applications and crashes. Knowing this I could reproduce the crash any time. Open Skype, copy something, close Skype, crash. Disabling g-s-d's integrated clipboard-manager stops the crashes. If you need a clipboard manager you can try popular options like Parcellite or Diodon. I'll update title and description with this information. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/873545 Title: No GTK theme applied on login / theme lost after gnome-settings-daemon error.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 873545] Re: No GTK theme applied on login
Even though this is not relevant, i'll continue with my rant: I also had to ensure that the compiz plugin gtk had been checked in ccsm at least once. The compiz plugin wallpaper had to be checked and set to be identical to the wallpaper set in system settings otherwise the dash was always on the bottom of the windows stack with the super button was pressed. I still can't get the rotating cube viewport switcher to work without flashing but the default wall works so there's no need to have an epileptic fit. But i'm still getting the dbus warnings (don't know the cause yet) and glib-gobject errors and indexing errors when nautilus is opened but not to the same extent as immediately after the upgrade. This has prevented me from opening very large documents to work on.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 873545] Re: No GTK theme applied on login
I don't think the buttons for the theme appeared for my install until i changed the following default setting in dconf-editor: /org/gnome/desktop/applications/interface/buttons_have_iconstrue (default is false) screensaver/idle-activation-enabled true Also i had to make sure the xsettings in gconf-editor were set to true and I had to change the key so that nautilus didn't control the desktop (so no drag and drop icons on the desktop from nautilus) Other wise my cpus were cooking and install was freezing all the time. Oh and i had to create a couple of symlinks for the unity icons - seems there was a change of name from "groups" to "categories" preventing .desktop items to be found for non-standard applications i used in 11.04. I realise these are all just work arounds but at least unity is usable now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/873545 Title: No GTK theme applied on login Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I just updated to Ubuntu 11.10 - and everything looked perfectly okay - except Nautilus!

In my case (see bug 859723) this happens with Opera and KeepassX whenever I close the application with some of its content in the clipboard. Eg.

I'm not sure what LightDM issue you're referring to, but I do believe similar issues with gnome-settings-daemon dying at any time will cause a loss of the theme. However I have tried to be careful to distinguish between different error codes because there could be multiple bugs. In my case, if the theme is missing when I log in then .xsession-errors always shows that gnome-settings-daemon had the codes: "error_code 8 request_code 3 minor_code 0" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/873545 Title: No GTK theme applied on login Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I just updated to Ubuntu 11.10 - and everything looked perfectly okay - except Nautilus!
