Subject: gnome-settings-daemon: Crashes on startup logging in from remote.
Package: gnome-settings-daemon
Version: 2.24.1-3
Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
Dear Debian folks,
I am using x2go [1] to log in remotely into the system. At startup a
windows pops up stating that the gnome-settings-daemon failed to start.
I hope getting the daemon run will solve some switching of keys I
experience and which is reported and discussed in Launchpad already [3].
I tried running it from gdb, but I do not know how to use it properly
and just got this output.
(gdb) run --no-daemon --debug --sync

The program 'gnome-settings-daemon' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'XI_BadClass (invalid Class parameter)'.
(Details: serial 203 error_code 133 request_code 131 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.)
[1242207651,000,xklavier.c:xkl_engine_start_listen/] The backend does not require manual layout management - but it is provided by the application
Program exited with code 01.
Reading bug 524992 [2] I also issued the following commands. (But since
they return something different I file a separate report.)
$ # user1
$ gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
layouts = []
options = []
model = evdev
$ xprop -root | grep XKB
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "xfree86", "pc105", "de", "", ""
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "xfree86", "pc105", "de", "", ""
Following [3] I think I opened the keyboard manager
(gnome-settings-daemon crash message popped up again
“Unable to start the settings manager 'gnome-settings-daemon'.
Without the GNOME settings manager running, some preferences may
not take effect. This could indicate a problem with Bonobo, or a
non-GNOME (e.g. KDE) settings manager may already be active and
conflicting with the GNOME settings manager.”,
but the keyboard manager showed up fine) and set the keyboard to
»Evdev-managed keyboard«. I did not change this setting of a different
user, so s/he has PC-Intl 105. There this command does not return
anything.
$ # user2
$ gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
$ xprop -root | grep XKB
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "xfree86", "pc105", "de", "", ""
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "xfree86", "pc105", "de", "", ""
The behavior is the same though for both users.
