Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon

I get this error whenever I log on a fully updated hardy:
"There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.

Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work
correctly.

The Settings Daemon restarted too many times.

GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log
in."

$ ps aux | grep settings
osito    21255  0.0  0.1   3000   756 pts/0    R+   09:25   0:00 grep settings

Attached the output of when I try to manually do:
$ sudo gnome-settings-daemon >> Desktop/manual-run.txt
The program 'gnome-settings-daemon' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)'.
  (Details: serial 89 error_code 1 request_code 151 minor_code 6)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
