|
|
||||||
<p>If you ever start up an application and see the
|
|
||||||
following error:</p>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<pre>
|
|
||||||
WARNING **: Service registration failed.

|
|
||||||
WARNING **: Unable to determine the address of the message bus
|
|
||||||
</pre>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<p>It means the application wants to use <a
|
|
||||||
href="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software_2fdbus">D-BUS</a>.
|
|
||||||
D-BUS is a message bus system which allows for
|
|
||||||
applications to communicate with one another. Many
|
|
||||||
applications such as Evince, Epiphany, Evolution,
|
|
||||||
and Liferea are starting to make use of D-BUS's
|
|
||||||
services.</p>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<p>In order for applications to communicate with D-BUS,
|
|
||||||
the system message daemon must first be started. To do
|
|
||||||
this, add the following to <tt>/etc/rc.conf</tt>:</p>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<pre>
|
|
||||||
dbus_enable="YES"
|
|
||||||
</pre>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<p>Next, the GNOME Desktop must be started with D-BUS
|
|
||||||
support. To do this, launch <tt>gnome-session</tt> from
|
|
||||||
within <tt>dbus-launch</tt>. For example, if you start
|
|
||||||
GNOME using <tt>~/.xinitrc</tt> or <tt>~/.xsession</tt>,
|
|
||||||
change the line that execs <tt>gnome-session</tt> to the
|
|
||||||
following:</p>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<pre>
|
|

exec dbus-launch --exit-with-session gnome-session
