It may not help, but try renaming your ~/.gconf folder and then login again. You will have lost a lot of your user configuration, but you can at least rebuild that quite easily. I can not see anything in that folder that specifically points to the setting that seems to have gone wrong for you, but it's worth a try. Other folders you might also like to temporarily rename in you home are .config, .local and you may try others as well.

Good luck!
