 See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/325706,
 comments 16 and 17.

 Sugar should not fail to launch if gconf keys are missing.  One-line fix
 is needed at
 http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/sugar/repos/mainline/blobs/HEAD/src/jarabe/desktop/favoritesview.py#line284

 The fix could be as simple as logging a warning and choosing the Ring View
 if the requested layout is unknown.

 This should also cause a bugfix release for 0.84.  I have experienced this
 bug myself in Gentoo.
