    Gnome error for Heron final in virtualbox

    Just testing my Heron download in Virtualbox and get the error:
    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.
    on startup. This was not present in the beta.

    I downloaded by torrent, but no md5sum is present on the mirror I got the torrent link from. Does anyome know the md5sum or does anyone know another reason why I might be getting the error message?

    Found the md5sums from the release page and my download is okay. So any other suggestions are welcome - maybe it just doesn't work with Virtualbox properly?

    btw, the Virtualbox is 1.5.6 on Windows XP
