If you set DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS to the correct value for your logged in GNOME session (on the machine you're connecting to), then u1sdtool will work fine. I suppose we could trap this exception, and print an error and exit instead, but the message is roughly going to be the same. The u1sdtool script doesn't necessariy require X, but whatever it was attempting to launch apparently does. Looks like it was attempting to launch dbus-daemon for the session.
