I just tested it and if I just restart DBus, I can reproduce what I saw a few days ago. Also, it seems that my entire GNOME session basically restarts - the panel quits and returns, nautilus pops up a browser I don't need, half the icons in the tray are missing, etc. :) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Its a conscious upstream decision to no support dbus restarting. Aaron, are you handling this in banshee now? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I restart DBus and HAL fairly frequently when I am working on code that uses these features to test reliability in the infrequent case when a user may experience an unintentional restart of these services. I did not explicitly restart DBus when I discovered this bug, but I did explicitly restart HAL. Does HAL have anything to do with this, or is it just DBus? As for Banshee, yes, it survives very gracefully if you yank DBus from underneath it. In fact, when DBus comes back to life, you can still use DBus features in Banshee. No crash, no app-recycle, no loss of functionality. I understand the rationale for just letting the desktop features recycle, but when they come back, they should not be limited or disabled. Furthermore, I don't see why the shutdown dialog would even be in process when I'm not using it, so it seems like any DBusing it may do would happen when I actually start that process, and certainly nothing should be disabled then since by this time, all the necessary services have restarted. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
