That thread suggested adding <!-- Allow anyone to invoke methods on the Introspectable interface --> <allow send_interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable"/> See here for the full hal.conf: http://slackware.com/~rworkman/hal.conf.txt I added the all send_interface line, then ran service dbus restart The error messages stopped! Then I encounter Bug #383464 which makes this a major bug, since we have to eliminate the shutdown menu to get a fix or workaround. Not sure if the hal.conf change is: a) valid workaround b) valid solution c) just got lucky My original and adjusted hal.conf are attached. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Observe the cited error message in /var/log/messages 2. Add the cited line to hal.conf 3. service dbus restart Actual Results: Error message: Apr 2 10:17:00 pm dbus-daemon: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.649" (uid=1000 pid=26597 comm="/usr/bin/plasma ") interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable" member="Introspect" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="org.freedesktop.Hal" (uid=0 pid=2007 comm="/usr/sbin/hald --daemon=yes ")) Apr 2 10:17:03 pm dbus-daemon: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.610" (uid=1001 pid=26090 comm="/usr/bin/plasma ") interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable" member="Introspect" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="org.freedesktop.Hal" (uid=0 pid=2007 comm="/usr/sbin/hald --daemon=yes ")) Expected Results: No error messages: -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
