The problem is that gnome-settings-daemon and pulse audio are crashing during startup, i.e. they appear as defunct processes once gnome is up and running. It's a bit like the bug a few months ago where the "gnome-settings- daemon restarted too many times" error message popped up, but this time there are no error messages anywhere. Another odd thing is that I can't use Ctrl-C to kill any processes that I start from an xterm. Anyone else having similar problems? Thanks.
