Ouch!

I suggested because you seemed to have many X related packages udpated 
and it could be that Xorg needed to be power-cycled.

Mmm... I tend to do an "apt-get -f install" (and also "purge") from time 
to time in my wheezy system and I remember Gconf was removed since time 
ago. Anyway, I can't see a direct relation between having the package 
installed (along with older configuration files) and the above errors :-?

I can't really tell. If it really was due to old/residual configuration 
files is even harder to find the real culprit :-)

In such cases, what it helps for debugging the problem is "sux -ing" to a 
different user and test from there to discard something in the home 
profile.
