[Bug 272093] Re: Intrepid: Unable to start the settings manager gnome-settings-daemon
I have exactly this bug on Intrepid: "mannheim wrote on 2009-03-02: (permalink) I have what may be the same problem. I do not have libvisual-0.4-plugins installed, so this is not bug 287448.

To add to my comment above, this is happening with greater frequency for me now. 4 boots in a row this morning with no desktop and no ability to interact with the desktop. At work, I need to boot to the 2.6.27-9 kernel to use my USB CDMA wireless modem as -11 breaks it and realized that this issue has never occurred when doing so and seems to be exclusive to -11.

My symptom is slightly different in that upon booting the OS the theme and fonts remain, yet my desktop is gone. I cannot interface whatsoever with the desktop. If I go to System>Appearance I receive the error "unable to start the settings manager 'gnome-settings-daemon'. This occurs with a frequency of about 1 out of 3 or 4 boots.

[Bug 272093] Re: Intrepid: Unable to start the settings manager gnome-settings-daemon
Its only a suspicion from an old developer but gstreamer looks guilty here. My sound system is also failing to work which is preventing a lot of applications from running. I have a feeling that too has the same underlying problem in that the gstreamer update has introduced a bug with wide ranging effects. If its only affecting a few systems there must be a lot more to it of course although I always worry about the silent majority who give up on the OS when they hit a problem like this and go back to Windows/Mac etc. Let me know if I can run any other diagnostics to help pin it down - AFAIK I'm running a very standard 8.10 system except for the nvidia drivers needed for the hardware. -- Intrepid: Unable to start the settings manager gnome-settings-daemon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272093 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 272093] Re: Intrepid: Unable to start the settings manager gnome-settings-daemon
Hey guys and gals, Running Intrepid Ibex, on a Dell Inspiron 6400 (It's better than the Macbook I traded to my wife...), with 2gig ram, and Compiz. I am having the exact same problem as Paul Whipp. Suspend is a hit or miss with this thing and I had to shutdown this morning because it just would not suspend (a different bug). When I turned it back on, everything was ugly as hell. I did not receive any error messages until I went to System->Preferences->Appearance, then I got: "Unable to start the settings manager 'gnome-settings-daemon'. Without the GNOME settings manager running, some preferences may not take effect. This could indicate a problem with Bonobo, or a non-GNOME (e.g. KDE) settings manager may already be active and conflicting with the GNOME settings manager." error message. So, I did have Amarok installed, and figured that might be the problem and since I didn't like it anyways, I removed it (as well as every KDE lib I could find). This, however, did not solve the problem. The gnome-settings-daemon is in my session startup. Restarting the X Server, restarting Linux, starting gnome-settings- daemon, also does not solve the problem. However, when I start the gnome-settings-manager, everything appears normal, I mean the theme loads and looks purdy, but a couple seconds later, it turns back to ugly.

I've been running the updates to Intrepid Beta for a week, or so, without problems. Today's updates resulted in the problem reported here.
