For some reason their KDE3 stopped starting the session dbus at login. This breaks all applications that talk to dbus. Gnome and KDE4 uses dbus so people using those never see this problem; its only for KDE3. beagled uses dbus to talk to HAL for battery information, but that is not crucial whereas beagle-search uses dbus for single-instance feature which is, if I understand correctly, unavoidable. -- 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 can add a check to not crash if session dbus is not running in the next release. For the time being, it might be better to use dbus-launch or something like that in the beagle-search script. Just to ensure that the session dbus is running. -- 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.

According to the dbus spec, that env var needs to be set for the session message bus to be locateable. QT bindings are probably using QT or X11-specific libraries to locate the session bus, while managed dbus doesn't rely on any vendor-specific extensions, so it can't really guess what the session bus address is if kde doesn't follow the spec. -- 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.
