"error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon" at startup

[Steven Garrity <stevelist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm running FC3 on my ThinkPad T30. I did a clean install, and I'm not
sure if it started right after the install, or later on, but now each
time I boot, after logging in, I get this error dialog:

> There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.
>
> Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings
> may not work correctly.
> The Settings Daemon restarted too many times.
>
> The last error message was:
>
> Failed to execute /usr/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon: 27
> (File too large)
> GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next
> time you log in.

Like the error suggests, I do have trouble changing themes and 
screensaver preferences. Ideas of what might be wrong and what I could 
do to fix it are appreciated.

Here's a screenshot of the error dialog:
