Cinnamon failing to start.

So when i try to startx with cinnamon i get the following error:
cinnamon-session[6979]: GLib-GIO-ERROR: Settings schema 'org.cinnamon.desktop.session' does not contain a key named 'session-manager-uses-logind'

I looked around and tried to run:

gsettings set org.cinnamon.desktop.session session-manager-uses-logind true

but that just gives me:

No such key 'session-manager-uses-logind'

Any ideas?

Re: Cinnamon failing to start.

The schema is supplied by the cinnamon-desktop package.  What version of that package are you using?

Thanks, that was it. I had a git version installed from a while back...
