Description of problem: Please re-set component if incorrect: couldn't find gnome-keyboard-properties or gnome-settings-daemon component to file under - may be bonobo too? Gnome Keyboard Preference's configuration gui causes the Gnome Theme to cycle between chosen theme and the default fc5 theme. Also, the Keyboard Preferences' Layout Options' "Alt/Win key behaviour" doesn't seem to be honoured (i.e. Supper doesn't appear mapped to Win-keys as Window Preferences' Movement Key (Super) isn't honoured). Also, the Keyboard Preference's Typing Break has stoped working. Keyboard switching hasn't worked since install (between Maori and US). And, Error Messages (attached) have been appearing at logon as well as when Keyboard Preference's gui is accessed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): [morgan@morgansmachine ~]$ rpm -q gnome-session gnome-session-2.14.1-1.fc5.1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open Desktop -> Preferences -> Keyboard 2.Screen starts cycleing between default and custom Theme & cpu goes to 100% (on changing) 3. Actual results: Failure to save settngs; cycling between Themes; error pop-ups Expected results: Set Keyboard preferences Additional info:

I'm experiencing similiar problems. It seems that preference caplets can't talk to the gnome-settings-daemon even though it's running. Also some of my preferences don't seem to be working like certain keyboard bindings. I haven't really changed any preferences in quite a while and this is fairly new, within the last week, so I don't necessarily believe any one preference is corrupted. More like the gnome-sessions-daemon is locking up or something.
Changed component to gconfd-2. version of gconfd-2 (which this may be better loged against?): [morgan@morgansmachine ~]$ rpm -q GConf2 GConf2-2.14.0-1 I created a new login and moved everything across. A work-around, and a lot of work.
Hi, We no longer support Fedora Core 5 and I am currently trying to get my open bug count down to a more manageable state. I'm going to close this bug as WONTFIX. If this issue is still a concern for you, would you mind trying to reproduce on a supported version of Fedora and reopening? (this is a mass message)
