I tried adding gnome-settings-daemon to my GNOME Session (System - > Preferences -> Session), but that does not seem to have made any difference.
There's no reliable way for me to reproduce this bug. Instead, it happens randomly: sometimes when I launch a new application from my GNOME bar, sometimes when I do something within an already-running application (open a file dialog, ask XChat to connect to a server, etc). Here's the tail end of my .xsession-errors ** (nm-applet:6912): WARNING **: <WARN> nma_dbus_init(): org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoServer raised: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: Connection refused ** (nm-applet:6912): WARNING **: <WARN> nma_dbus_init(): org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoServer raised: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: Connection refused ** (nm-applet:6912): WARNING **: <WARN> nma_dbus_init(): org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoServer raised: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: Connection refused DBus connection has been lost, trackerd will now shutdown ** Message: Got disconnected from the session message bus; retrying to reconnect every 10 seconds (nautilus:7134): nautilus-extension-gnome-mount-WARNING **: Cannot connect to system bus: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoServer : Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: Connection refused (nautilus:7134): nautilus-extension-gnome-mount-WARNING **: Could not initialize hal context seahorse nautilus module initialized Initializing nautilus-share extension ** (gnome-panel:7137): WARNING **: Couldn't connect to system bus: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: Connection refused ** (gnome-panel:7137): CRITICAL **: dbus_g_connection_get_connection: assertion `gconnection' failed ** (nautilus:7134): WARNING **: Unable to add monitor: Operation not supported Nautilus-Share-Message: Called "net usershare info" but it failed: 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error No such file or directory Please ask your system administrator to enable user sharing. Perhaps more annoyingly, when this happens I am unable to browse the contents of my home directory. I can click on Places->Desktop, Places->Documents, Places->Music, etc; but clicking on Places->Home Folder gives me an empty window and a spinning cursor. The same situation holds true for any "File Open" dialog: I can't see the contents of my home directory. -- Gnome settings daemon doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/138277 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
