'Applications -> Preferences -> Font' not working.

[Adam Bogacki <afb@paradise.net.nz>]

Hey guys,  after being a long-term satisfied gnome-user I suddenly find that

Applications -> Desktop Preferences -> Font
(or)                                                         -> Themes
(or)                                                         ->  Sound

don't work.

I recently did a number of 'apt-get dist-upgrade --fix-missing" and 
installed

'gnome-accessibility-themes', 'gtk-engines-industrial', and 
'gtk-smooth-themes'

but can't use any of them.

Any ideas ?
