Sebastian: I just tried to test starting without dbus-x11 but I cannot remove it anymore since some (important) packages in Hardy depend on it:
$ sudo apt-get remove dbus-x11
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
dbus-x11 f-spot gnome-mount gnome-volume-manager policykit-gnome
ubuntu-desktop
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 6 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
After this operation, 13.5MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]?
