There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon
Some things such as themes, sounds, or background settings, may not
work correctly.
The Settings Daemon restarted too many times
The last error message was:
System Exception:IDL:Bonobo/GeneralError:1.0:
Child process did not give an error message,
unknown failure occurred.
Gnome will try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you
login.
[close]
When I click [close] the wiggling stops and everything is (as far as I can
tell) normal until I log out
and try to login again.
The fact that after closing this window the machine behaves normally
again, seems to suggest, that that's where you should search for the
problem. Try to find out what the Settings Daemon does, maybe try to start
it manually under strace and see where it fails? Or just starting it in
the foreground might give some output on the terminal, look for verbouse
or debugging mode. Or follow the advises above - try to select another
theme, see if your sound works, etc.
Don't have any etch with X here, so, cannot verify myself.
Thanks
