2014-07-26 15:14:50 Alberto Salvia Novella description I seem to be hitting transient DBus communication problems after a fresh install of Xubuntu 14.04 amd64 on my Thinkpad W510 with the latest nvidia binaries from the Ubuntu repos. Here are the related bugs. Sometimes rebooting fixes things for a while. If I understand correctly, at least one of the bug reports (Bug #1314782) suggests a race condition is to blame: Bug #976638 (pkexec does not find any authentication agent) Bug #1193236 (Couldn't connect to accessibility bus: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-*) Bug #1239014 (xfsettingsd unable to daemonize properly when overlay scrollbars are activated) Bug #1048805 (xfce4-appfinder launches very slowly) Bug #1314782 (multimedia keys don't work when xfce4-volumed is run in daemon mode) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: dbus 1.6.18-0ubuntu4.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-32.57-generic 3.13.11.4 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-32-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: XFCE Date: Tue Jul 22 16:26:36 2014 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-06-25 (27 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140416.2) SourcePackage: dbus UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ************ ROOT CAUSE ************ Several programs in Xfce have a daemon mode call gtk_init() before fork()ing.
