Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon

since upgrading to 10.04 from 9.10, i've had occasional problems
suspending my laptop. it seems that the gnome-settings-daemon crashes
and goes defunct:

igor47    1987  0.0  0.4 385652 16692 ?        Ds   May11   0:24
/usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon

it then prevents the system from suspending

May 16 22:21:10 localhost kernel: [181200.590107] INFO: task 
gnome-settings-:1987 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
May 16 22:21:10 localhost kernel: [181200.590116] "echo 0 > 
/proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message

the timeout takes a long time, and i've frequently found myself thinking
my laptop has successfully suspended only to discover it several hours
later, extremely warm in my bag.

i've been trying to figure out how to disable gnome-settings-manager as
a workaround, but i have no idea what even starts it up (or what the
effects of this would be; it does appear that gnome-settings-manager has
any documentation which explains what it does...)
