dbus

I have installed Firefox as deb in a Ubuntu Mantic jail and enabled dbus to communicate with the host by passing in the DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS from the host in a script this allows desktop notifications from the jailed browser to show up on the host and mpris to control videos playing in the...

I am building new libsignal + signal-cli from source. signal-cli works but not in daemon mode (which uses dbus) % echo $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_PID 28740 % echo $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS unix:path=/tmp/dbus-uz9QtVF3Bh,guid=320c3c663b93e9ebe351dea7634bccd % pgrep -U $(id -u) dbus-daemon 28740 %...

As of yesterday I appear to have built it but haven't installed any supplementary ports to check it's operation. http://dpaste.com//D8MSMH49H Here's the version of it without devel/dbus support. If anyone's interested in a more complete thing or if there's a need to add these options...

I had just did a fresh installation of FreeBSD 13 and xorg+KDE. I deliberately left out "dbus_enable="YES" in the /etc/rc.conf (after finding out that it isn't really necessary as some users don't have it enabled). After rebooting the machine, I got a blank (black) screen with only a moving...

I've never quite understood what d-bus is for and what it does. What kind of things wouldn't work without it? I have personally never went out of my way to enable it programs like chrome or firefox always start the session anyways, someone told me it's a security concern, is that true? edit...

Hi, My Slim + XFCE configuration causes following issue: First login is fast, everything is fine, shutdown/reboot buttons are available. On re-log it takes about one minute (timeout?) until the desktop is shown. /var/log/slim.log says: slim: waiting for X server to begin accepting...

How do I set dbus_session_bus_address, needed for printing?It's for a HP scanner/printer. The scanner part of it works with the print/hplip driver. hp-print filename.pdf error: Unable to connect to dbus session bus. org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NotSupported: Using X11 for dbus-daemon autolaunch...

Does anyone know how I might resolve this? It looks to me like the install script has bad logic for determining if the user/group already exist. # pkg update & pkg upgrade [...] [26/86] Installing dbus-1.10.16_1... ===> Creating groups. Creating group 'messagebus' with gid '556'. ===>...

Hi, I'm a new member in the FreeBSD community. First, I apologize for the English of this post thread, I am Spanish XD. I have already used FreeBSD with SLiM and GDM for GNOME and Enlightenment desktop. But now I need a lighter display manager and desktop envoirement, that's why I opted for...

Since the last upgrade to MATE (I use packages - not ports) on my FreeBSD 11.1 desktop, the Shutdown/Reboot option under the System menu has gone missing. If I login as root the menu item appears as expected. I do not see the menu item when I am logged in as a regular system user, who is also...

I am not exactly sure when this happened but it was sometime after I tried adding pkg networkmgr. Now when KDE starts I see Could not start DBUS I have dbus_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf as well as hald_enable="YES" and running sudo service dbus start in terminal returns dbus already running...

Hello, there. Hope my post won't contain too much newbie errors. I'm a FreeBSD newbie trying to configure FreeBSD as my workstation. After a while struggling with video cards, I had a running GNOME with web browser, office suite, etc. After a reboot, GNOME started to refuse to open itself: on...

Hi, I've read at some pages with instructions for installing Lumina that dbus and hald should be enabled at /etc/rc.conf. Otherwise, in Lumina's FAQ they say Lumina doesn't need any framework like dbus or hald. So what are the advantages and disadvantages of enabling dbus and/or hald at...

I am currently using two operating systems - FreeBSD and Devuan. The latter is a new project that aims to create a general purpose OS based on Debian that does not contain systemd, yet offers the tried and tested UNIX solutions (user groups, etc.). For instance, the init process is driven by...
