    Gnome settings daemon

    For a while now I get an error box that Gnome settings daemon cannot be started. Does it happen with on your PC's too or is it a bug? Thanks.

    Remove libvisual-0.4-plugins solves this.

    Same exact issue here

    Removed libvisual-0.4-plugins and it works now.
    Hope that's not a permanent solution, though . Also I don't know about you guys, but my volume control still doesn't show up in the top right now so it's not totally fixed.

    Re: Gnome settings daemon

    You must add a new volume control to the panel > just right click and "add to panel".

    -----------------

    This bug was introduced during RC freeze and its ongoing work for the moment, maybe we must wait for an update ???

    Nevertheless, easy to remove this package.

    Re: Gnome settings daemon

    Update accepted

    libvisual-plugins (0.4.0.dfsg.1-2ubuntu4) intrepid; urgency=low

    * New patch, 60_no-const-vispluginfo-in-nastyfft, the static VisPluginInfo
    in nastyfft was declared as const, but libvisual write to its refcount
    when it visual_object_unref()s it (nasty!). This is broken at various
    levels: libvisual shouldn't be writing to this static plugin which is
    allocated by a dlopen()ed plugin, and it should also honor the "const
    VisPluginInfo" API... Anyway, nastyfft was the only occurrence and this
    fixes the crash for now; LP: #287448.

    Also new walk around see bug.... I don't see any reasons for enabling the ppa
