[Solved] strange graphics and some other mysteries after upgrading

Just updated my laptop and surprised my wall background contrast was more brighter as usual. I tried to open gnome-control-center for check out the settings, but it didn't opened. I did the same by commandline and got following result : http://pastebin.com/dbWdkYvV

Currently my desktop (I am using gnome fallback) looks like this:  http://postimage.org/image/4de0uthnl/

Maybe some log-file could give more information, but not sure what I am looking for..

Some library broken?

For reference you can read:

Ok, To be honest those new fetures give me just grey hairs  big_smile 

Just kidding, it is good development work goes on. (But still would be nice if options not taking effect automatically)

Still one problem left: System Settings/gnome-control-center is not working with me at that moment. Something wrong with this?

yup. it's a well-documented bug (it's been reported) and there are several threads in the Arch forums, with a workaround. here is one of them;
