Pogo Zeitgeist and DBus errors

[msznapka]

Hi
I am often experiencing Pogo crashes during startup.
I have latest Ubuntu (Ubuntu GNOME Remix 12.10) and up to date Pogo 0.8 from PPA.
Zeitgeist daemon, datahub and fts processes are running.
Let me know, if you need some additional logs / info.

Thanks for the report. It seems something is wrong with your D-Bus setup
since all modules that use it fail to load. Can you investigate this,
please? Do other programs that use D-Bus work?

[msznapka (bigmartin)]

Sorry for late response. I am not too much experienced to answer your questions, but if you tell me what should I do, it is not problem to test / install anything and paste any log files.
I am not experiencing any crashes / wrong behaviour of any other applications in my system.

Is it possible to run pogo without dbus module?

If I run "ps -ef | grep dbus" result is:

[Jendrik Seipp (jendrikseipp)]

You can run pogo without dbus if you change line 24 in the file DBus.py from

MOD_INFO = ('D-Bus Support', 'D-Bus Support', '', [], True, False)
to
MOD_INFO = ('D-Bus Support', 'D-Bus Support', '', [], False, False)

Does it work then? Do you have the latest version 0.8-1~549 from the PPA?

[msznapka (bigmartin)]

Yes, I am using ppa version.
Pogo is much stable now (about month?), so reproducing / testing this error is problem now :-)
