Comment 7 for bug 409621

Hello. I notice that, before gnome-settings-daemon fails as described, it says:
Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1003.0".
Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1003.0".
Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1003.0".
Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1003.0".
Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1003.0".

It also reproduces for me using the commercially packaged nxserver from nomachine.com. Perhaps this means that gnome-settings-daemon is looking for an X extension that Jaunty's X has, but that nxserver does not support? If this is the case, then would it be possible to make gnome-settings-daemon not depend on this X extension, as the ability to fully use nx sessions is very important to some users?

I was also unable to get a debugging callstack using gdb, but am hoping that this error message makes it clear why it doesn't work.
