Comment 2 for bug 140485

I ran into this same problem this morning when I updated my synaptics driver. I'm running on Gutsy on a Dell inspiron e1405. Uninstalling the xserver-xorg-input-synaptics causes gnome-settings-daemon to run just fine. I have never reported a bug before so I'm not sure if I need to give any more information other than pointing out that this does indeed occur. gnome-settings-daemon was running perfectly before updating this morning. Let me know if I need to post any additional information to confirm this bug.
