Then it shows a error on not loading gnome-settings-deamon.
“There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.
Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work correctly.
And last error message was:
Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log in.”
Then i search using search engine for the solution. After search for a several times and open some websites, i found 2 solution.
1. add two line in file /etc/network/interfaces:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
and commenting out all entries with IPv6
then type sudo ifup lo on terminal
and reboot linux box (ubuntu 7.04/feisty fawn)
2. Go in the sound preferences and disable ESD
Then i use the first solution, and it works. So if you have the same problem, just do 2 solution above, and i hope it works to you too.
Oh my goodness…! I will say you are stress-saver. I commented those lines while checking out My Network Interface connectivity.. And forgot to uncomment.. – Thank you Very much and keep saving people – i am sure you were stressed before … Thank you

I am having this error on my Debian Squeeze machine. I tried option number one above but the two lines to add were there already and the rest of the file was already commented out. Is this an error having to do with the sound preferences? I have a microphone that is not plugged in when I am not using it which has been for at least the same period I have been seeing the error.
