I second LCID Fire comment - may be reporting it as an enhancement upstream to gnome bugzilla? I reported my Hardy bug here as it seems really really similar to the one I had with Gutsy (I am one of the first commenters in this bug). Should I report a new bug, or would it be a mere duplicate of

Well the problem is that the error message is just crap. I mean basicly it says - "hey something went wrong but I don't tell you what". So IMO the first thing to do is to replace this one with a more sophisticated error handling (I know it takes a lot of work - but how many of such bug reports d

I can confirm on Hardy (2.6.24-12-generic i686) updated as of yesterday. I was seeing this bug randomly on Gutsy, and stopped seeing it after installing dbus-x11. Then I installed Hardy Alpha6 (fresh setup, removed root - also /home). The bug did not appear, until today (obviously, with dbus-x11

no need to use a such tone, installing dbus-x11 will workaround this bug but also have side effects, it means that the session bus is started not by GNOME but by xorg so it'll not use the GNOME environment which means applications started using the multimedia keys will not be able to use the keyrin

Honestly, I really don't see what the holdup is to get the dbus-x11 package required in backports. I've yet to see anyone for whom installing dbus-x11 has NOT fixed the problem. I've marked several bugs as duplicates of this one - they all say the same thing. How much confirmation do we need, seri

Sebastien, I'll run a test installation within the next week or so and let you know what happens. Either way, is there any way to push a backport into Gutsy? Maybe require a dependency on one of the standard dbus (or even better, gnome) packages to get this installed? I'm worried that people are
