Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

This is on Ubuntu 8.10 with version 1:2.24.0.1-0ubuntu7.1 of gnome-
control-center.

I use my laptop (HP EliteBook 6930p) with a second monitor at work (as
one large desktop via ATI Catalyst Control Center). When I take the
laptop home, I switch to the lower one-display resolution (from 2800x900
to 1400x900) with gnome-display-properties. This changes my desktop
theme from Ubuntu's default brown-ish "Human" to a blue one
("Clearlooks", I think).

Usually, this change cannot be reverted via gnome-appearance-properties.
When I try, an error message informs me that the gnome-settings-daemon
couldn't be started, so changes won't take effect. In the appearance
window, "Human" is still the selected theme. If I start the daemon by
hand, it works again.

Strangely, this only happens when I decrease the screen resolution, not
when I increase it again.
