Comment 11 for bug 666608

Hi even though ubuntu-one is in the startup applications it won't connect to the u1 server. Never.
At every startup I need to initiate the connection myself. Here's what I enter:

philippe@ILR-B328a:~$ u1sdtool -c
Oops, an error ocurred:
Traceback (most recent call last):
Failure: dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
philippe@ILR-B328a:~$ u1sdtool --stat

State: QUEUE_MANAGER
    connection: With User With Network

    is_connected: True
    is_error: False

    queues: IDLE

This happens on my ubuntu 10.10 64bit pc and on my ubuntu 10.10 32bit notebook at two different locations. One in the university net and the other at home.
Sometimes the above mentioned approach won't work and I need to killall u1 associated processes and restart the whole procedure.

Apparently I have all components to connect to the server but it just won't start by its own. Silly.
