(Get the code!)
I happened to reboot this weekend and had a shock. What I ended up doing was just downgrading to Gnome 2.14. It seems to be a problem with the GConf schemas but I just decided to downgrade everything and wait until someone else fixed it.
Downgrading is rather awkward with the Debian system but I've found the easiest way is to remove Gtk and then everything that depends on it will be removed (although all your settings will remain as long as you don't purge as well). Then just make sure that you have dapper in your /etc/apt/
Some things like *-common are left over because they do not depend on libgtk. A simple command-line which may be helpful to downgrade these is:
$ for pkg in `dpkg -l | grep ^ii| grep 2.15 | cut -d" " -f3`; do version=`apt-cache show $pkg | grep Version | grep 2.14 | cut -d" " -f2`; sudo apt-get install $pkg=$version; done
Just make sure there's nothing else that happens to have a version number of 2.15 (I didn't have anything on my system).
Hopefully someone will fix the schema issue soon so upgrades will go smoothly.
