Have you got this in your session startup? May or may not be necessary
if you're using kdm/gdm.
## test for an existing bus daemon, just to be safe
if test -z "$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS" ; then
## if not found, launch a new one
eval 'dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session'
echo "D-Bus per-session daemon address is: $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS"
fi
