gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5 in xkl_process_error() while connecting external monitor

Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon

Release of Ubuntu: Karmic
Package Version: 2.27.3-0ubuntu
Expected Results: connect an external monitor without trouble
Actual Results: g-s-d crashes, the external monitor works but i'm unable to adjust the way the screen is ditributed across both monitors.

this seems to be a dupe from bug #321041 and from bug #260551

I'm testing a way to reproduce it, while connecting an external monitor.
