Comment 1 Matthias Clasen 2008-07-25 03:38:15 UTC
Most likely a side-effect of gnome-session brokenness.

Can you reproduce this with gnome-session-2.23.5-0.2008.07.21.4.fc10 ?

Comment 2 Qian Cai 2008-07-25 11:02:20 UTC
Where could I find this package? I did not see it available on rawhide yet.

Same problem here,

[qcai@walsinh ~]$ gnome-appearance-properties

dbus_g_connection_get_connection: assertion `gconnection' failed

Comment 5 Bill Nottingham 2008-07-30 20:38:04 UTC
This works for me in both rawhide and the current test Alpha live images. Please
reopen if it still fails for you.
