Hi,

What is the purpose of the gnome-settings-daemon process? Would it not
be enough to have configuration files for GNOME? Thus saving many
resources. Why is there necessary a daemon? Why is it necessary to use a
daemon to share settings from GNOME to GTK+ or KDE applications, as I
have read?

Regards,
Detlef Lechner
