Do you have a particular reason for not running the dropbox package in
the AUR, as Joel suggested?
I'm using it without problems.

Anyway, the first thing I'd do would be to launch dropboxd from the
command line to see if it outputs some useful error messages. Another
thing I'd try would be to backup and then rm the .dropbox and
.dropbox-dist folders (or, alternatively, setup dropbox in a clean
environment, e.g. from a test user).

FWIW, my permissions are the same as yours.

Hope this helps,

Lorenzo
