[Bug 45122] gconfd not shutting down/not restarting after X server killed

[Brian Brunswick]

Public bug reported:

After I kill the X server using ctrl-alt backspace, logging back on
usually hangs partway through the gnome setup progress with the centre
splash still up, sometimes showing update-notifier.

Launching gnome terminal just hangs - no window appears. firefox will
start tho.

Manually killing gconfd from outside X can make things work again.

** Affects: gconf2 (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Needs Info
