Description Jan Mynarik 2002-11-01 08:57:31 UTC
Package: control-center
Severity: normal
Version: 2.0.1.1
Synopsis: Error while loading configuration information for gnome-settings-daemon
Bugzilla-Product: control-center
Bugzilla-Component: settings-daemon

Description:
Description of Problem:
During loading GNOME2 environment after succesful login I get error
window saying this:

An error occurred while loading or saving configuration information for
gnome-settings-daemon. Some of your configuration settings may not work
properly.

After clicking on details I get this description:

Type mismatch:
 Expected list of list, got list of list

After some attempts to resolve the reasons of this problem I realized
that it's caused by setting workspace names.

I'm using metacity.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Have a plain GNOME2 environment and login into it.
2. Use 'Workspace Switcher' applet to change workspace names.
3. Logout.
4. Login again and you'll get an error I'm mentioning.

How often does this happen?

Within every login.

Additional Information:

If you remove gconf setting desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager
that it's all OK till the next workspace name setting.
