You need dbus running. I'm going to copy and paste
the old faq since we removed it since gnome-session
starts dbus session.

*How do I use D-BUS from within the GNOME Desktop?*

If you ever start up an application and see the following error:

WARNING **: Service registration failed.

WARNING **: Unable to determine the address of the message bus

It means the application wants to use
D-BUS<http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software_2fdbus>.
D-BUS is a message bus system which allows for applications to communicate
with one another. Many applications such as Evince, Epiphany, Evolution, an=
d
Liferea are starting to make use of D-BUS's services.

In order for applications to communicate with D-BUS, the system message
daemon must first be started. To do this, add the following to /etc/rc.conf=
:

dbus_enable=3D"YES"





I'm probably the only person who uses epiphany with kde.
