Hello, I will not answer to your question directly, but I have implemented GSettings schemas for my audio-recorder app. It may give you some tips. Please take a look at: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~osmoma/audio-recorder/trunk/view/head:/src/dconf.c However, do take grated everything is correct and optimally coded ;-)
The GNOME-desktop uses normally DConf as Gsettings backend. But that's behind the curtains. Bom fim de semana.
