Thanks, I see, seems that my gconf setup is wrong because is returning
None for that key.  This is in sugar-jhbuild  Now I need to find why,
as I have sugar-jhbuild/install/etc/gconf/schemas/sugar.schemas with:

    <schema>
      <key>/schemas/desktop/sugar/desktop/favorites_layout</key>
      <applyto>/desktop/sugar/desktop/favorites_layout</applyto>
      <owner>sugar</owner>
      <type>string</type>
      <default>ring-layout</default>
      <locale name="C">
       ...

Cheers,
