http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=980521 http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=980521#c10 --- Comment #10 from Egbert Eich --- Werner, I've done so already. Point is, that this loop does not work: for suid in "${HOME}/.dbus/session-bus/"${mid}* ; do test -e "$suid" || break grep -q $guid "$suid" || continue dpid=$(grep -E '^DBUS_SESSION_BUS_PID=[[:digit:]]+' "$suid") test /proc/${dpid#*=}/exe -ef $dbusdaemon && continue unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS break done There is no file in ${HOME}/.dbus/session-bus/ containing $guid. In fact, there isn't even a file in this directory that was created at or after the start of the gdm session. DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS is set and gets unset due to the failure to verify it. I don't know how it can be verified and frankly I think we have to give up the idea that we need to and should instead trust DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
