I had troubles with > gnome-settings-daemon until a couple of days. I am running the gnome overlay. I didn't know it had git inside. I am running git 1.7.7.

I believe these bugs are not related to the above. > Can you try to start GNOME with a clean config (no ~/.config, no > ~/.local, no ~/.gconf, no ~/.gnome*).
