I ran into this issue while running Natty on VMware. More specifically: I log in to Ubuntu Classic mode. The theme is Ambiance as expected, but all of the icons are the unity theme icons instead of Ubuntu-Mono. Nautilus also has the Ubuntu One icon embedded. About 20 seconds later, the theme reverts to the ugly theme. Restarting gnome-settings-daemon and nautilus fixes the to the proper Classic mode theme.
I've tried the workaround in #68 and it still resulted in: "** (gnome-settings-daemon:1941): WARNING **: You can only run one xsettings manager at a time; exiting" regardless of the time i set, until i set it too far and gnome-settings-daemon.desktop timed out instead. I had set the virtual machine as a single CPU single core machine. Once I changed the machine to dual core, I logged into Ubuntu Classic with the expected theme and icons without the theme reverting. I hope that helps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/649809 Title: the session settings manager can try starting before the login screen one exits -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
