<pre>Following up on my post:
I booted into run level 3 and did a yum update. It found 12 packages
to install, 184 to update, and 12 to remove.
One or more of those updates did the trick.</pre>

I ran into this yesterday on a netinstall of f15 RC3:<br>
It is due to an non-working old version of dconf<br>
the bad version was 0.7.4-1 and the new one is 0.7.5-1<br>
fix it by just updating to dconf-0.7.5-1<br>
<pre>yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update dconf
