Bug#565541: Same here...

[Marek Turnovec]

I have probably the same problem - but it won't take whole session with 
it - I'm just not able to start gnome-settings-daemon with this error 
message:

(gnome-settings-daemon:5963): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 
g_param_spec_internal: assertion `(name[0] >= 'A' && name[0] <= 'Z') || 
(name[0] >= 'a' && name[0] <= 'z')' failed

And many things are not working without GSD running...
