https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=799517 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=799517#c0 Summary: systemd is looping, attempting to start pulseaudio Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Factory Version: 12.3 Beta 1 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SUSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Sound AssignedTo: tiwai@suse.com ReportedBy: nrickert@ameritech.net QAContact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:18.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/18.0 Computer is a Dell inspiron N5010 laptop. Sound is listed as: 5 Series/3400 Seroes Chipset High Definition Audio I first noticed large numbers of directories in "/tmp" and "/var/tmp" with names of the form "systemd-private-*****". Other symptoms were that XFCE login would hang, and Gnome login would sometimes fail. KDE login worked, but KDE startup was slow. I then noticed logs: 2013-01-20T17:20:14.680925-06:00 nwr systemd[1]: Starting RealtimeKit Scheduling Policy Service... 2013-01-20T17:20:14.681159-06:00 nwr systemd[1]: rtkit-daemon.service start requ est repeated too quickly, refusing to start. This probably accounts for the large number of tmp files. I later noticed: 2013-01-17T22:12:53.142243-06:00 nwr rtkit-daemon[1876]: Failed to find user 'rtkit'. and perhaps that is related to the problem. I'm not sure why that required user does not exist. The logs on another computer suggested that rtkit was starting pulseaudio. After uninstalling pulseaudio, the problem has gone away.
