By examining each startup program in my gnome session, I found out it is being caused by gnome-power-manager. Running it manually makes the same dialog popup (and dissappear again before I can read it) and leaves no output on the console. Running it with --verbose leaves this: hans@aphax-laptop:~$ DISPLAY=":0.0" gnome-power-manager --verbose [gpm_debug_init] gpm-debug.c:158 (15:36:52): Verbose debugging enabled *** WARNING *** [main] gpm-main.c:183 (15:36:52): Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/dbus.pipe: No such file or directory [gpm_syslog] gpm-debug.c:140 (15:36:52): Saving to syslog: Critical error: This program cannot start until you start the dbus system service. It is <b>strongly recommended</b> you reboot your computer after starting this service. As far as I know, dbus is up and running: hans@aphax-laptop:~$ ps auxww | grep dbus hans 28949 0.0 0.2 1976 1560 ?? Is 3:28PM 0:00.02 dbus-daemon --fork --print-address 22 --print-pid 24 --session Anyone know what to do about this?
