[Brij Malhotra]

When I edit a file using gedit it types :

(gedit:22697): Gtk-WARNING **: Calling Inhibit failed: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files

stuff which I do not understand

Did you perhaps use `sudo`? With graphical applications you need to use `gksudo`.

See this question and its answers: http://askubuntu.com/q/376426/31099

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

do you use it under sudo?
