When loggin in from gdm, the GNOME splash screen appears and a few of
the icons for the various steps appear, then a dialog box titled
"Error" appears with the text:
---
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.
The last error message was:
Child process did not give an error message, unknown failure occurred
GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log in.
---
My panel configuration appears to be OK, but my desktop background
color was lost. Setting it again works, though.
The only lines in /var/log/messages that seem to be relevant are:
---
