Public bug reported: With systemd, the mate-settings-daemon starts 10 minutes later after the desktop login. It means it works but I have to wait 10 minutes after the login. I found a way to reactivate Upstart. You can reactivate Upstart with "sudo apt-get install upstart-sysv". After that the mate-settings-daemon works without any problems.
With systemd (within 10 minutes): sudo systemctl status org.mate.settingsd Output: org.mate.settingsd.service Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory) Active: inactive (dead) sudo systemctl status org.mate.service Output: ● org.mate.service Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory) Active: inactive (dead) mate-settings-daemon Output: ** (mate-settings-daemon:3091): WARNING **: Failed to acquire org.mate.SettingsDaemon ** (mate-settings-daemon:3091): WARNING **: Could not acquire name Screenshot: http://forum.hyperion- entertainment.biz/download/file.php?id=1625&mode=view Another user has a similar problem with audio: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2264322&page=14 ** Affects: mate-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Package changed: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) => mate-settings- daemon (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1437722 Title: ubuntu MATE 15.04: mate-settings-daemon problem with systemd To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mate-settings-daemon/+bug/1437722/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
