+Hmm.
+
+&gt;<i> The System Settings menu pick until recently would try to start from the

+Can you start it from the Activities bit?
+
+Could you post the output of ~/.cache/gdm/session.log ? This is the new
+~/.xsession-errors. Please check if there are privacy related things in
+there before posting.
+
+&gt;<i> Is there some way to wipe out my configuration and start from scratch? By

+</I>
+Do you have gnome-control-center? I'd like to figure out what is wrong
+before wiping configurations. This kind of problem should not occur,
+plus might occur for other people.. so if you have time, I'd like to
+find the cause.
