I've found the reason for this. I realise that I was having all kinds of settings related trouble, and I also found that gconf-editor crashed when run and I couldn't hit to alt-f2 and bring up the run dialog (and the control-center->keyboard shortcuts seemed to be empty). After thinking for a while I realised that the gconf schemas hadn't been installed! I so went to the /etc/gconf/schemas and used gconftool-2 to install them all for my normal user: gconftool-2 --install-schema-file=blahblah.schemas Now everything seems to work. Terminal bell is back, gconf-editor works etc etc. I can't figure out why they weren't installed though. The system was upgraded using FC3 CDs and Anaconda. But anyway, I hope this helps anyone else with a similar problems.
