I am using ubuntu edgy gnome freezes after login every bootup for ages. I get a brown screen for a few seconds, then a brown screen with a white rectangle on the top-left corner for up to 2 minutes, and finally the following error message (where the white rectangle was):
There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon. Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work correctly. The last error message was: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log in. this is just like Adolfo R. Brandes. Then it loads a basic gui instead of normal how do you fix that -- gnome-settings-daemon crashes at login https://launchpad.net/bugs/61381 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
