I can confirm this behavior. I just upgraded my system from jaunty to karmic, and I found that gnome-settings-daemon would not start when running a free-nx session. However, g-s-d started properly when I started a normal gnome session (no free-nx). Then I disabled the xrandr plug-in, and g-s-d was able to start in a free-nx session.
-- The program 'gnome-settings-daemon' received an X Window System error. During on a FreeNX server suring a session. The crash does not happen when xrandr plugin is disabled. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/454487 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to libxrandr in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
