Missing some System Settings from Gnome
Hello, I just installed Fedora 16 and wanted to add some apps to startup but realized System settings has only a small setup of utilities and does not have option for adding apps to startup. Also it's missing some other icons that I see on my Rhat 6.2 . I'm logged in as user from admin group but it sounds that either I don't have nessessary persmission or some packages or etc. Could someone help me to fix this issue? btw running from prompt gnome-control-centre does not bring more options than I have from System settings. Thanks in advance.

GNOME-SETTINGS-DAE(1) User Commands GNOME-SETTINGS-DAE(1)
NAME
gnome-settings-daemon - GNOME settings daemon
SYNOPSIS
gnome-settings-daemon [OPTION...]
DESCRIPTION
gnome-settings-daemon provides many session-wide services and functions that require a long-running process. Among the services implemented
by gnome-settings-daemon are an XSettings manager, which provides theming, font and other settings to GTK+ applications, and a clipboard
manager, which preserves clipboard contents when an application exits. Many user interface elements of gnome-shell and gnome-control-center
rely on gnome-settings-daemon for their functionality.
The internal architecture of gnome-settings-daemon consists of a number of plugins, which provide functionality such as printer
notifications, software update monitoring, background changing, etc. For debugging purposes, these plugins can be individually disabled by
changing the gsettings key org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.plugin-name.active, where plugin-name is the name of the plugin. To see a list
of all plugins, use the command
gsettings list-children org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins
gnome-settings-daemon takes the name org.gnome.SettingsDaemon on the session bus to ensure that only one instance is running. Some plugins
export objects under this name to make their functionality available to other applications. The interfaces of these objects should
generally be considered private and unstable.
gnome-settings-daemon is a required component of the GNOME desktop, i.e. it is listed in the RequiredComponents field of
/usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome.session. It is started in the initialization phase of the session, and gnome-session will restart
it if it crashes.
OPTIONS
-h, --help
Prints a short help text and exits.
--debug
Enables debugging code.
--timed-exit
Exits after a timeout (30 seconds) for debugging.
FILES
/usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome.session
GNOME session definition file where gnome-settings-daemon is listed as a required component.
/etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-settings-daemon.desktop
Autostart file for gnome-settings-daemon, where its autostart phase is set.
