Here some additional information about the problem appearing on Ubuntu 10.10:
If I type 'ps aux | grep settings' in the terminal gnome-settings-daemon isn't shown. If i type gnome-settings-daemon the ambiance theme starts. I also get the error message: ** (gnome-settings-daemon:3606): WARNING **: Got less number of items in credentials hash table than expected! After that 'ps aux | grep settings' show gnome-settings-daemon running. I don't know if this is relevant, but if I type in gnome-settings-daemon after that again, I get the following error message: ** (gnome-settings-daemon:3693): WARNING **: Failed to acquire org.gnome.SettingsDaemon ** (gnome-settings-daemon:3693): WARNING **: Could not acquire name The ambiance theme not loading on startup is very annoying. Now it happens every time I log in. ** Attachment added: "xsession-errors" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/588155/+attachment/1763249/+files/.xsession-errors -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/588155 Title: randomly gnome-settings-daemon fails to start -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
