Or, live DVD at least. Error dialog (gnome-session/gsm-gsd.c:gsd_error_dialog()) pops up with the error message of Activation of org.gnome.settingsDaemon timed out.

I *think* this should be better in tomorrow's rawhide, but I'd like confirmation before I close the bug and push the patch upstream. marking MODIFIED. Will, would you mind giving it a go?
Live image with the new package is building now.
Here the be-more-async patch in 2.18.0-9 breaks the theme manager as in changes in Custumize->Controls dialog don't take effect.
uh oh. yaneti, would you mind filing another bug about that problem (and referencing this bug in that report) ?
Jeremy, is the original issue here fixed ?
I thought I added an update here. Original issue seems to fixed. At least, I can't trigger on the box I was hitting it with last week.
