Whenever I log in g-s-d crashes, and my settings are gone.  It used to work, but now suddently it doesn't.  This is an account that was originally using GNOME 2.x

I got this traceback:

I noticed gsd-disk-space.c, so I will relay this information which may be related:

In addition the "System Info" setting consistently shows incorrect disk "Disk" configuration.  It overstates that I have 1.1 TB (I wish) on the above machine.  On another machine it seems to be understating the disk.  However, gnome-system-monitor does appear to me more-or-less accurate in reporting free space.  It should be noted that I have linux bind-mounted directories as well as an encfs-mounted directory in $HOME, so perhaps it's choking on that (I'll try again later w/o the encfs mounted).

In addition, I tried to report this bug earlier, but X just completely locked up.  When I rebooted, I get the same things, but this time when I run "file core" it tells me it's from "gsettings-data-convert" which is from gconf-2.32.2.  I'm not sure if you want a backtrace from that or if I should submit another bug (seems it might be related though).
