Hi,

Are there known problems with the GNOME settings daemon on ia64 (and maybe other architectures too)? I can't find a valid recent entry in the Debian bug tracking system.

I'm running daily-updated Debian Squeeze on my hp workstation zx6000, and it seems that gnome-settings-daemon can't be started properly (don't know how to output debug informations while trying to manually restart it on command line).
Furthermore, I've also noticed that the NetworkManager tray icon always says that I've no networking connection.
And the sound volume manager doesn't remember my settings.
I tried a fresh reinstall of Debian Squeeze on a separate harddisk the passed night. Same problem.

Is this because GNOME is currently somewhere between 2.24 and 2.26 on Debian Squeeze?

Cheers,

Émeric
